Sen. Darline Graham: People in South Carolina Are More Wor ried About This

Tonight there is no doubt that the rise of socialism in the Democratic Party is happening everywhere across the country, not just even in Florida, well, 40 states since 2019 and you have over 250 DSA members that have been elected and there are over 40 on the ballot this midterm. Take a look. Where are these wins happening? Is there a specific area or what do you see with the numbers? Yeah. Okay. You might just say, oh, this is just a phenomenon in the Northeast. This is part of the Acela Corridor. This is just an urban phenomenon. No, not really. I mean, take a look here where DSA candidates won primaries for Congress, they're all Democrats. Yeah, you got three in New York, but you got two in Michigan. You got one in Colorado. You got one in Florida last night running for the Senate and you got one in Pennsylvania. So this is not just a Northeast phenomenon in terms of these DSA candidates who are winning primaries. Yes, they are primarily in urban areas, but they are happening across the map. Coast to coast, 40 states right now impacted by this. More to come. A vote for any Democrat anywhere not named John Fetterman will bring America closer to that socialist, communist, phony utopia, which really is a nightmare and that includes the great state of South Carolina. Here with more on her race is South Carolina Senator Darlene Graham. Great to have you. You know, it's kind of ironic. You know, when I interviewed you, I kind of got a kick out of the fact that you were very quick to say, I'm not my brother, but I do want to finish the work that he started. And you said, but you used to get on your brother because I used to get on your brother. He drove me crazy. You know, I'm like, can you please focus on issues that impact the people of South Carolina? And every time I put them on, he only wanted to talk foreign policy. So last night you have a debate. Now you've been thrown into a situation. The president of our country asked you to run and fill in for your brother and your governor asked you to take that position and you have been very clear about the issues you stand on. You know, you are for gun control. You're against biological men playing women's sports. You want lower taxes. You supported Todd Blanche for the Senate. You support the SAVE Act. You know, very many issues. You're more conservative than Lindsey. And so this issue of Taiwan came up last night and I know people have made a big deal about it. I'm like, I wonder how many people around the country, if I gave them a map, could pick out Taiwan. I don't think many. And not just as I mean the whole country, nevermind South Carolina, right? I think you're 100% right, Sean. I tripped up on one question last night regarding Taiwan, but you know, I've said many times, I'm not a politician, certainly not a career politician. I don't speak politician. You know, I was just honest and I think that's kind of a foreign concept, but I talked to several people today, I traveled around the state and they said, you know, we appreciated the fact that you were honest. And I did say several times that, you know, China is our enemy, our military and economic threat to the United States. Of course, Taiwan is our friend, but I think people in South Carolina are more worried about making ends meet. They're concerned about boys and girls sports. One lady talked to me extensively about that today. They're concerned about the Second Amendment. They're concerned about the Save America Act, illegal immigration, so they're concerned about a lot of other things other than Taiwan. Yeah, you know, and to be fair, if people want to judge you on the South China Sea and Taiwan, okay, I think that's fair. But I bet based on all your time with your brother that you know probably everything about the Middle East because he went on one trip after another to every country in the Middle East. And I know you know a lot about Europe and the Ukraine-Russia situation because he went to Ukraine more than any other senator. And you even said in our interview that you were going to focus more on domestic issues than your brother did. I mean, you were very clear. Absolutely. I know national security is important. We have a wonderful commander in chief. I know that we need to stand with Israel and the issues in Iran are serious. I understand all that. But again, I'm focused on the issues for everyday people in South Carolina that are struggling to make ends meet. So that's where I really want to focus. Another concern from the debate I had last night is my opponent said he was going to cut Social Security. That's very concerning to me. He also talked about creating a pathway for illegal immigrants. So that's another concern I have. Yeah, well, he's not a Trump supporter either. By the way, President Trump has so much confidence in you. He is going to campaign on your behalf in Myrtle Beach, I believe on Friday, right? Absolutely. We are so excited about him coming to Myrtle Beach. You know, South Carolina absolutely loves President Trump. We're looking forward to it. Everybody's so excited. So we can't wait for it. We're going to have a wonderful rally in Myrtle Beach. So looking forward to it. Absolutely. All right, Darlene. We appreciate your time being with us. I do miss your brother. I talk to him every night. And he did talk too much about foreign policy. And I used to say, talk about something else, please. But we miss him. I told him the same thing. I told him, yeah, same thing. I know. He never listened. I miss him. You know, Tim Scott would tell him, too. I'm like, oh. All right, Darlene. Thank you. All right. Coming up, big moves from President Trump on the world stage from Latin America to Asia, including a possible meeting. Oh, Little Rocket Man is back. We'll tell you about that. And we have those live reports. Also, the administration takes another step to secure the homeland, cracking down on illegal immigration, reducing crime to record lows. All right.
