Jaime Harrison shames Lindsey Graham’s response to coronavirus pandemic;
April 8 Fox News appearance:
“If we can hold the death rate below 50,000, then I would say we’ve acted decisively.”
April 24 Fox News appearance, the same day that reported U.S. deaths pass Graham’s 50,000 high-water mark:
“We’re going to be well below the 100,000 minimum expected.”
May 14 Politico article — the same month that deaths pass 100,000: “To quote Senator Lindsey Graham,
‘The closer you can have it to 120,000 deaths, I think you can say you limited the casualties in this war.'”
The next day, the death toll hit 128,000.
The most recent poll reveals possibly more trouble. Fifty-six percent of South Carolina voters said they held an unfavorable view of Graham, while only 35% took a positive view of the senator.
Graham remained silent.
