Graham calls Tom Cotton the Steve King of the Senate'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said Friday that Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) has become "sort of the Steve King of the Senate," a reference to one of the House's most ardent immigration hard-liners.

In an interview with MSNBC, Graham, who has advocated for legislative protections for young immigrants, rejected the notion of ending family-based immigration in exchange for enshrining the protections of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program into law.
A proposal by Cotton and Sen. David Perdue (R-Ga.) seeks to end so-called chain migration, which allows U.S. citizens and permanent residents to sponsor family members abroad to come to the U.S.

"All I can say is we're not going to end family immigration for DACA," Graham said. "The Tom Cotton approach has no viability here. You know, he's become sort of the Steve King of the Senate."

You have to love Republican infighting

1. Steve King is a racist.

And so is Tom Cotton. Cotton is an Unreconstructed Confederate. That's what Graham is saying.

2. One silver lining from this hopefully is that Tom Cotton for Dir. CIA...

...is a non starter for Senate Confirmation.

3. You say "ardent immigration hard-liners," I say

"racist asshole who should end up like the Vic Morrow character in the Twilight Zone movie."

Po-tay-toe, po-tah-toe.
