I swear I don't think people like you understand strategy. Trump gets it! That's why he's supporting Graham! He made a decision that he could win this fellow over since 2016 & he's done a pretty good job of it. He grasps the value of keeping a Senate majority as valuable to passing a conservative MAGA agenda that could change this nation in a better direction. NONE of us love Graham- but at this point, he's keeping our presidents agenda in power. I'm sure Trump himself would tell you- quit screwing him & us over so you can make a statement about your principles 🤷🏼

[familyop]

They understand. See my comments #57-#60.

[redheadedshannon]

PRECISELY- he may deserve to lose for past actions- BUT WE DO NOT!! 🙄

[Zathras]

The time to take out Graham is during a primary.
Not 2 weeks before the general with a gin’ed up protest vote.

[mrsmith]

” NONE of us love Graham- but at this point...”
Yeah.
Of course he does this every election... nonetheless, we’re stuck.
Imagine if his Dem opponent wins.

[redheadedshannon]

Oh get serious with your neocons b.s.. I guarantee you that none of us arguing to reelect him over a worse Democrat are lacking in staunch conservative credentials. We just aren't won over by those of y'all advocating a kamikaze approach to governance. Your stance doesn't make you more conservative at all. It proves that you don't seem to grasp that in order to get to a solid conservative governing majority is going to be a balancing act that involves friendly centrist & fence sitters. I wish everybody was already there- but we still have convincing to do. Deal with reality 🤷🏼

[Robert DeLong]

Hopefully we make it a clean sweep, and retake the House as well. While at the same time capturing the Governorship of a lot more states too. 8>)

[Hostage]

Have fam in SC. Yes, they say Graham is a pain in the ass to put up with but by God they are going to vote for him because they love the President and want to ensure he has a Senate that is on his team!

[familyop]

The importance of reelecting Graham has been explained to you all many times. We’re all aware here, that anyone who stands against reelecting Graham is also striving against appointments of more conservative Supreme Court justices and other federal judges and against the Second Amendment rights of all Americans. No one could be more radically anti-American and communist than anyone who would oppose Graham’s reelection at this late point in time.

[TBP]

Now, if we can just retake the House.

[TBP]

Now, if we can just retake the House.

[redheadedshannon]

Amen. We have some virtue signalers on our side too. It's nauseating & phony! Their sole concern is being in a little club of people who pat each other on the back for standing up for principles- even though the actions they're taking are screwing over those very principles. It's like watching lefties virtue signal- except liberals & progressives are never stupid enough to sacrifice a seat, let alone a majority, to make the point 🤦🏼

[granada]

Oh, here we go again. You kind of neocon poseur tried to make weird crap sound like pragmatic strategy. Voting for two faced RINOs/backstabbers to get a solid conservative governing majority? What a great idea! You are missing Paul Ryan’s leadership? You are supposed to realise that you are not so much a bright strategist as a megalomania snake oil salesman.

[granada]

According to your specious logic, freepers should have given three cheers for Romney when he voted to convict Trump. A brilliant strategy, wasn’t it? Didn’t change the outcome, but significantly boosted a Republican senator’s fame among so called “centrists and fence sitters?”
Fence sitter. Lol. You should use it to describe yourself.

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

And, the media pivots from telling Linda how to run his campaign to telling Linda’s voters how to vote.
To paraphrase Ross Perot: It’s the MEDIA stupid!

[Lower Deck]

A sign that the Harrison campaign is in trouble or is Jamie just rubbing Linda's nose in it?

Probably the later. If you want to troll someone who claims he's a conservative what better way to do it to point people to someone is?

[napscoordinator]

I’d take both. I can’t think of one vote Linda went against the president. Not one.

[napscoordinator]

What became of that? Nothing!!!!

[napscoordinator]

If you want them gone, do it during the primary. That’s what they are for.

[napscoordinator]

Thank God you don’t live in South Carolina so you are insignificant in this conversation.
