John,

It’s not often that I’m shocked by the vile things that Republicans say and do. We are in the era of Trump, after all — a time when decency and honor are no longer applicable to their conduct or policies.

But when Senator Lindsey Graham reminisced yesterday about the “good ole days” of segregation, in his official capacity as chairman of one of the most powerful committees in the United States Senate, it made my stomach turn.

Referencing such a dark chapter in American history with fondness is shameful in any context, as was the excuse he gave afterward. You were joking? I’m sorry, Senator Graham, but NO ONE is laughing.

John: I’m asking you to join me today to support Jaime Harrison in his race against Senator Graham. He's a strong Democrat who will advance equality, bring communities together, and fight for South Carolinians when he gets to Washington. Chip in $10 to flip the Senate and ensure that Lindsey Graham is a thing of the past after November 3rd. [link removed]

Lindsey Graham is exactly what’s wrong with our politics today. We need forward-looking leaders who have enough common sense and decency to NOT reminisce about such a painful period in our history — much less “joke” about it. 

Jaime Harrison is exactly that, and the good news is that he can win. In fact, a poll released today has him up by a point — 47 to 46! But that could easily change: Republican donors are lining up to reward Lindsey Graham for rushing Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination through just before Election Day.

Jaime’s chances hinge on grassroots support, John. That’s why I’m reaching out for your help. Can you split $10 or $25 between our campaigns to help defeat Lindsey Graham? [link removed]

The “good ole days” that Lindsey Graham daydreams about was only “good” for white men who used their power and influence to uphold racist and patriarchal systems.

It's time to let Republicans know that we aren't interested in going back to those days. Chip in today to show that this country is ready to continue moving forward without him. [link removed]

Thank you,

Ritchie
