Sen. Lindsey Graham R-S.C., said Sunday it was "sick" that President Biden is playing the "race card" regarding the GOP-led Georgia election law and the legislative filibuster.
"What's sick is for the president of the United States to play the race card continuously in such a hypocritical way," Graham said.
During an appearance on "Fox News Sunday," Graham slammed Biden for claiming that policy and legislation he disagrees with are relics of racism and the Jim Crow era.
Graham criticized Biden and Democrats for their opposition to the filibuster, given both the president's and the party's advocacy to retain the parliamentary procedure in the past.
The South Carolina senator criticized the Democrats' own proposed legislation, the "For the People" act, and claimed their own response to reforming election regulation would be the biggest "power grab" in American history.
Graham echoed previous GOP lawmakers in his criticism of H.R. 1 and said that the bill was not only unconstitutional, by federalizing state elections, but also enacts or inhibits various other contentious practices, including ballot harvesting, rollbacks of voter ID requirements, and altering the processes of the Federal Election Commission.
"Every time a Republican does anything, we're racist," Graham told Chris Wallace. "They use the racism card to advance a liberal agenda, and we're tired of it. H.R. 1 is sick, not what we're doing in Georgia."

What is sick is Graham thinking anyone takes his faux outrage seriously.
