Sen. Darline Graham (R-SC) expressed support for nuking the Senate filibuster and pledged to stand “100% behind” President Trump during a debate Monday in the South Carolina Senate primary race for her late brother’s seat.
The debate marked Graham’s first political test in her barely two-week-old campaign to succeed one of the most influential GOP senators in history – her older brother, Lindsey Graham, who died of an aortic rupture last month.
“One of the first things I did was co-sponsor the Save America Act,” Darline Graham noted. “As I said earlier, I’m willing to stay through recess to get it done. What’s up with recess anyway? Who gets a month off from work?
“I think we should stay up there and work and get it done.”
Graham indicated that she’s willing to scrap the Senate’s 60-vote threshold to pass the Trump-backed voting integrity bill – noting that it’s a step further than Lindsey would go in support of mandatory voter-ID legislation.

We have enough females in the Senate, thank you very much. NEXT?
That’s wonderful news. We still shouldn’t pass Senate seats to Senators’ family members as if they are royalty.
Keeping seats in the family doesn’t seem very American like.
Her brother was super-MAGA every 6 years like clockwork.
So? You don’t live in SC.
If she runs and wins, so be it.
i believe she is standing for election. as for interim appointment, i’d rather her than some good ole boy donor who is owed a favor
She could possibly be better than “He who will not be named”’s Wingman.
Who knows?
“ Her brother was super-MAGA every 6 years like clockwork.”

And engaged in episodic sabotage for 5 1/2 years before the next election.
100%, I live in SC. I didn’t vote for her. NFW she should just be handed a senate seat. Very Un-American. The damn seats should remain vacant until the next scheduled election.
Grift ‘til election day, then go full Monty.
OK til the new Senator can be elected.
Voters get the same continuing staffers running things til they get to choose a new Senator.
Then, get this wingnut out.
