Lindsey 2.0 is back.
Via Daily Caller:
South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham on Friday berated Democrats who refuse to compromise with President Trump on border wall funding.
Fox News host Shannon Bream introduced Graham as having “three words for Republicans on the border wall, ‘let’s dig in,’” then asked the South Carolina senator where things are headed next.
“Number one, when you make a promise to the American people, you should keep it,” Graham responded. “The one thing I like about President Trump, he is trying his best to keep his promise. He promised to build a wall, and he is going to fight hard to keep that promise. After the caravan, if you don’t see the need for more border security, you are blind. Here’s the problem. I think Democrats hate Trump so much they want him to lose, even though it would be good for the country to work with him on border security. And if he doesn’t break ’em now, it’s going to be a terrible 2019. So Mr. President, dig in.”
The two discussed a possible compromise to make it a “win-win” — somewhere “less than” the $5 billion Trump is asking for but more than $1.6 billion Democrats have offered.
“If they are not willing to work with the president, I think they are going to hear it from the American people in 2020,” Graham said.
