Harris has racked up recommendations from ex-GOP staffers and high-profile conservatives like Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.
“You’re trying to convince me that Donald Trump’s rhetoric is the danger to this country? The danger to this country is the policies of Biden and Harris,” Graham said in the heated exchange with host Kristen Welker. “I can’t take four more years of this crap.”
“It was Kamala Harris, the ‘border czar’ who opened up our border to 10 million illegal immigrants running wild, women getting raped and killed, terrorists residing in our backyard,” Graham said, repeating a frequent but debunked attack on the vice president. “What the hell are you doing as a Republican blessing this stuff?”
Graham warned on Friday that Republicans up and down the ballot were “getting creamed” in the fundraising battle this year, pleading on Fox News for GOP voters to help candidates out.
