Despite Scott Disick being a total mess, Kris Jenner says she's "always hopeful" that her daughter Kourtney Kardashian and the LD will work things out. Maybe KJ didn't see our video of Too-Hot Scott looking wasted and getting into a car with some gals who looked ready for action?!

The 59-year-old reality star told Access Hollywood's Billy Busch, "Scott is like my son. He came over yesterday. He was on his way over to see the kids. He's a great dad. They've got things to figure out."

In July, Kourt and Scott split after nine years together. The breakup happened after photogs spotted partying and getting hands with his ex girlfriend Chloe Bartoli in the South of France.

We have no idea why Kris is still so gung ho about Scott when he's a total cheater and seems to have a substance abuse problem -- but if you check out her Instagram she seems to be all about the Lord Disick and has been for awhile.
