The Sock Puppet “speaks”. I’m pretty sure I can still see John McCain’s wrinkled lips moving.

RINO Jr. need to go the way of the dinosaurs as this is the very kind of talk that would never get him elected. I guess they don’t realize people are fed up with this kind of crap.

No wonder this waste of oxygen is scoring 0% in the polls. What is wrong with the voters of SC that they keep sending this cretin to the Senate?

Shut up, Graham. We don’t want them. We have our own “refugee” problems.

These a**holes need to be reminded of WHO SIGNS THEIR DAMN PAYCHECKS.

Senator, its not your job to dole out pieces of the United States in order to make yourself feel better.

Outrageous. We should not accept any. This is supporting ISIS agenda - perfect way to have ISIS savages infiltrate us. They belong in Muslim countries.

That’s what I wonder. Do the RINOs rig the election when they are trying to keep their seat, involving fraudulent or fake votes, but then look the other way when they are up against a Democrat, allowing the Democrat they are up against to cheat?
