PERSPECTIVE:
I want to - need to - stop here and pay special attention to @LindseyGrahamSC for a moment. He seems to believe that somehow it's unfair that so much money is coming in from around the country against him. But he tries to pretend that he doesn't understand why.

Here's why:
He is the Senate Judiciary Committee Chair. That committee doesn't serve just South Carolina but the entire nation. It's a fact that he's in charge of a senate process to pick a SCOTUS justice that affects us all - the entire country - and will for decades to come.

He is perfectly willing to push though a nominee that the majority of the nation rejects all for political purposes that do not serve the public in any way. Meanwhile, he doesn't believe that he should be held to account for his reprehensible actions and abuse of his office.
Therefore, if he is so arrogant that he can force through a judicial pick that most of the country hates, then the entire country is entitled to tell him just how much he's hated and PUNISH HIM POLITICALLY FOR IT.
@LindseyGrahamSC's contempt for the American public and the democratic process is obvious. Therefore, the race for #JaimeHarrisonforSenate isn't just about him and South Carolina, it about the entire nation.
