YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSouth Carolina’s governor appointed Lindsey Graham’s sister, Darline Graham Nordone, to his Senate seat, and Trump was already celebrating the move before the state even finished announcing it. She has done real public-service work helping blind and low-vision South Carolinians, but she has never held elected office, and now she is entering the Senate as Trump’s SAVE Act sits a few votes short. The bigger story is the same one that defined Lindsey Graham’s transformation: loyalty flows toward Trump, and money, power, survival, or a crucial vote comes back the other way. Ring of Fire's Josh G. discusses.
