Lindsey Graham says Ted Cruz, Rand Paul are ‘isolationists’
“They’re planning another 9/11 as we speak”, Graham said. “Who are you going to call?” Graham said. “He is our friend, he is our ally”. The undercard debate is over.
Graham says if “you want to fix this, you get the Army to 500,000, not 420,000”. Tuesday night’s undercard Republican debate was no exception. Rick Santorum (Pa.), former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee and former New York Gov. George Patakai – for engaging in Islamophobia.
Lindsey Graham appear on stage at the first round of the CNN Republican Presidential Debate in Simi Valley, California on September 16, 2015. Rick Santorum: “Rick, there’s nobody left to train in Syria”.
But Graham hit back, renewing his call for American boots on the ground and helping neighboring Arab countries and Turkey in fighting ISIS. And, yeah, be Commander-in-Chief. No wonder even Republican candidates who have no chance of winning, like Lindsey Graham, keep showing up for the debates.
“Do I think we can hug Putin, and have a wonderful relationship with the Russians and go off into the sunset like at the end of ‘Casablanca?'” Huckabee said. He defends the specificity of his plan, saying, “I don’t just make this up”.
Huckabee, speaking on CNN, said one reason his numbers fell is that he didn’t get much time to answer questions in those main stage debates.
“Not all Muslims are jihadists”. The good Senator from SC tends to wear those emotions proudly on that sad, rosy-cheeked face of his. “Your religion is not the enemy”.
We all know Donald Trump is one of Sen.
Asked if he would support Trump as the eventual nominee, Graham said he would but “I may sleep late that day if it’s Trump”. Pataki, who cited his experience as New York NY governor within the wake of the 9/11 assaults, stated Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton has a weak national defense while Trump wants to focus on law-abiding Muslims with his proposal to ban them from getting in to america. “We have entered World War III!” he declared.
