Oh Miss Lindsey, Please Stop Talking ...

I swear, this bitch just keeps stepping in it … last week South Carolina’s GOP Senator, Lady Lindsey Graham, debated the Democratic challenger Jamie Harrison virtually because Graham refused to submit to a COVID-19 test because, had he tested positive, he might have had to postpone the SCOTUS hearings and then _____ would have been mad at him, and Miss Lindsey can’t take that.

As a result, both Graham and Harrison were separately asked debate questions, and on a question about whether he’d met with leaders of the Black Lives Matter Movement, Lady Graham said, in part:

“I care about everybody. If you’re a young African-American, an immigrant, you can go anywhere in this state, you just need to be conservative, not liberal.”

That response suggested a couple of things: Lindsey Graham doesn’t give a damn about you if you’re liberal, AND  Lindsey Graham suggests that if you’re white, you’ll be completely okay in the state, but if you’re Black or from another country, you’ll only be okay if you’re conservative like him.

Of course, being conservative or pro-police doesn’t magically protect Black people from being harassed or killed by police in South Carolina, or anywhere else for that matter .
