Oh I'm aware of that. I mean most of the Senate Republicans who voted not to lift sanctions are up in 2020.
But Graham basically went from being with McCain on the never trump train to basically being Trump's biggest ally in the Senate all in the span of less than a year.

but i do see a ray of hope in south carolina...mark sanford was primaried...and the seat ended up going to the Dems...i think after a while so many accomodations get made to trumpism that even in a conservative place like south carolina a group of voters become willing to vote for the Dems
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
As a South Carolinian, I would chime in to say that I think Lindsay would be re-elected even if he were known to be gay. He hasn’t really done anything to piss off the base for ages. He’s a reliable vote, which is what counts. The state Democrats have a weak bench and haven’t bothered to run anyone legit against him, and probably won’t in the future. The Tea Party types hate him, but they always have, and they’ve never been able to mount any real challenge to him. Coming out wouldn’t get him primaried, but coming out against Trump would. There’s no percentage in it for him. I think the people who are wound up about blackmail have him wrong. He’s not compromised, just unprincipled.
But, somewhat more to the point, I watched that clip and didn’t see anything about blackmail or sexuality.
we disagree
The best way to stop a bad guy with a gun is to make sure he doesn’t get a gun.
on that we agree
let me add, I suspect the same of Paul Ryan
any of those (R) candidates would have signed what Trump signed. Legislatively (without Trump ) they probably would have accomplished more - because I think without Trump (R) holds the House

Wow. @AOC’s first speech on the House floor is already the most watched CSPAN video of all time.
