Thank you to our hosts for accommodating Senator Graham's refusal to take a Covid test, and changing the debate format to keep everyone safe. 🙄
Appears @harrisonjaime is skipping tonights debate.
Mr. Harrision is ducking the debate because the more we know about his radical policies, the less likely he is to win. It's not about medicine, its politics.
His liberal views are a loser in South Carolina - and he knows it!

In all due respect, sit this one out Senator. You’ve been in Congress for almost 20 years. You have only sponsored 3 bills that have become law: 2 were to rename post offices and the other to study a battlefield.
Senator, I hope you don’t think that’s governing. #JustSaying
30 executive orders and actions signed in only 3 days' time.

Seriously, it should take an act of Congress before anyone can drastically change or demolish the White House.
Presidents are short-term tenants, not owners.
And for the record, you can’t demolish an Airbnb either.
Mike Johnson, you and your caucus need to freaking clock in- get your asses back to work.
Remember what he did to the Rose Garden?

When it became clear I wasn't going to be successful, I immediately called Senator Graham and congratulated him.
Donald Trump should do the same. He and Lindsey know there is no path. Stop playing games & acting like toddlers.
“If Republicans don’t challenge and change the U.S. election system, there will never be another Republican president elected again. President Trump should not concede.”
This is the man SC elected over @harrisonjaime. Just disgraceful.

I don't know why @LindseyGrahamSC has turned his back on South Carolina values, but he has.
I invite the Senator to join me on Friday at the ground-breaking of the African-American Museum in Charleston
for a refresh on the painful history of lynching in our state.
Sen. Lindsey Graham defended Pres. Trump's tweet comparing the impeachment process to a "lynching," saying, "This is a lynching in every sense. This is un-American."
Other Republicans have since criticized the president's use of "lynching." abcn.ws/2odyMME
