Fox News host Lou Dobbs lashed out at the Republican Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Lindsey Graham on Friday saying he does not know why the people of South Carolina would ever vote for him.
“Just to be clear, I don’t know why anyone in the great state of South Carolina would ever vote for Lindsey Graham,” Dobbs said. “It’s just outrageous. This is the guy who keeps saying, ‘Stay tuned.’ He said he was gonna get to the bottom of Obamagate with the Judiciary Committee, which has been a year and a half ,actually longer of absolute inert response to these pressing issues of our day.”
Dobbs then read Donald Trump’s comment about Graham from 2016 when he was on the campaign trail in South Carolina.
“I think Lindsey Graham is a disgrace and I think you have one of the worst representatives of any representative in the United States,” Trump said in 2016. “I don’t think he could run for dogcatcher in this state and win again. I really don’t. Other than that I think he’s wonderful, he’s one of the dumbest human beings I’ve ever seen, the guy is a nut job.”
Dobbs said he believes Trump’s words about Graham remain true today.
“Graham has betrayed President Trump at almost every turn, he has betrayed the American people and his oath of office, he’s done absolutely nothing to investigate Obamagate except to tell everyone stay tuned, time and time again, stay tuned, Senator Graham needs to be tuned out in South Carolina.,” the Fox News host said.
Graham of course is in a very tight race with Democrat Jaime Harrison in South Carolina. If Republicans have any hope of retaining their majority in the Senate they cannot lose this seat. Polls have shown both candidates running neck and neck and Harrison has the bigger war chest. Graham has been on FOX, Dobb’s network numerous times to beg for campaign donations to put up a stronger fight.
He may lose his seat, now it appears he may lose Fox also.
