Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) urged Fox News viewers to donate to Republicans because the party is "getting creamed" in fundraising. Democrats face a tough Senate map because they must defend several seats in red or purple states. Still, the party has managed to raise more than twice as much money in battleground Senate races.

    Oh, are those multi-million Dollar bribes by the billionaire class for their favourite tax evasion party still not enough?

      The big donors just need to trickle down those donations. That’s how it works in Republican minds, right?

          I know it’s bad form to call someone an egg, but Miss Lindsey is the eggiest person in congress. And it sucks that that’s the only area that makes him feel any shame because we really shouldn’t care that he’s obviously a straight trans woman in denial, we should care because he’s a fucking asshole and a fascist.

        It’s not homophobia, getting creamed is a completely viable and valid way to spend an evening.

        It’s calling out hypocrisy because the guy actively engages with others who are openly homophobic, and literally helps build systems to oppress others based on topics like sexual orientation and gender.

    I’ll bet a good chunk of donations is going straight into the Trump family coffers (thanks Lara!) leaving little for the actual Republican candidates and incumbents.

    He added that he is donating $600 to the effort.

    “Please,” said Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), who is up for reelection. “I need your help.”

    Two pathetic stories in one!

    Calling it now, Blue Wave. I think Democratic voters are far more motivated and will roll out election day. What are GOP voters being offered to get them to the polls?
