GOP Senator Lindsey Graham (SC) on Thursday evening said he is ready to vote on ALL gun control proposals mentioned by Joe Biden.

Lindsey Graham also urged Schumer to bring the gun control proposals forward for votes.

“I stand ready to vote on ALL the proposals mentioned by President Biden tonight and encourage the Democratic Leader to bring them forward for votes.” Lindsey Graham said.

I guess now is the time to unblur those party principles. One in the same.

I'm reading it like they are going for it.

This sounds like a dare to me.

I really doubt Lindsey Graham supports ending the 2nd amendment.

What are you basing your thread title on>>>???????

He didn't say how he would vote. Also, being in a Mid-term, getting everyone's vote on record would scare the hell out of everyone in tight races.

I regret that my first vote as an official South Carolinian won't be against this garbage.

Eta: I didn't read the quote before I posted this. But it doesn't change my post. Surely SC can find someone better.

I adjusted. But this guy has been spearheading this give a lot and leave a little compromise. There is nothing left to do on gun control that isn't drastic.

I'm not Graham fan, but you misinterpreted his statement.

I also stand ready to work across the aisle to find common ground -something that was absent from President Biden’s address to the nation.

Reading comprehension and logic were never your strengths I see.

Thanks. I'll admit that link played on my fears. This is the one topic that's at my core. These lifetime politicians, Cassidy, Romney, et al, are hardly road blocks. I do see more gun control coming as this newly elected Senator is ready to shake hands on.

I don't want to see what defending the 2nd looks like but I've never seen blatant and public disregard for the 2nd. The President himself saying it's not absolute and banning everything he's wanting to ban. And then Graham talking about working with that and he's not alone.

Republicans like Graham don’t want a free people who will push back against a Government gone to far just like the Democrats.

He's ready to vote "nay". He may be a piece of shite, but he isn't going to vote to take away guns. That would be ridiculous. He's been running guns himself his entire political career.

Would hate for him to fall up a flight of stairs.

These politicians believe they’re protected if push comes to shove I find that comical.

He’s ready to vote ON them, didn’t say FOR them. It would be political suicide for him to vote for these measures.

At this point, any talk on gun control is to pacify the insanity of the left. Hundreds of gun control laws across the nation. It should be an outright rebuke against gun control legislation right now when mental health isn't even being addressed.

The fact they are even hinting about finding common ground on gun control ought to be enough for strongly worded letters at a minimum.

That’s what happens when you just read the title and not the article. (Me)

I don't think so. He said he was ready to vote. That doesn't mean he would vote yes on the proposed legislation. He recently stated that schools should have retired military service members providing security and that ROTC instructors could be armed to offer protection.

I think it's a "don't throw me in the briar patch" statement to put the screws to "moderate" Dems.

But, hell, with Miss Lindsey, you never really know...

USA is now a uni-party. It's pure swamp. Big Tech, Soros, etc...
