Sen. Lindsey Graham (R., S.C.) challenged Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) on Sunday to name one person from President Donald Trump's list of potential Supreme Court justices that he finds acceptable.
"This is a list that was compiled in November, but he actually put it out during the campaign," Graham told "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace, as he held up the list. "Twenty something people on this list, asking Chuck Schumer, name five, name three, name one that would be okay with you."
Schumer and fellow Democrats tried to pressure Trump and Republicans to withdraw then Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh after several allegations of sexual misconduct surfaced. Kavanaugh didn't withdraw and was confirmed by the Senate in a close 50-48 vote to be a Supreme Court justice. Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R., Alaska) voted "present" to offset her no vote with the absence of her colleague Sen. Steve Daines (R., Mont.). Daines was at his daughter's wedding but was willing to come back to D.C. if his vote was needed. The vote was largely on party lines with Murkowski being the only Republican who didn't vote for Kavanaugh's confirmation, while Sen. Joe Manchin (D., W.Va.) was the lone Democrat voting in favor.
Graham added that Kavanaugh is a mainstream judge that any Republican president would have nominated and that Democrats are trying to undo the 2016 election and prevent conservative jurists from being confirmed.
"Brett Kavanaugh was a mainstream judge. I would've chosen if i had been president, everybody running for president on our side believe that Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch were outstanding conservative jurists. The other side wants to cancel the election,"

Get him to pick one and that’ll be the choice for the next vacancy that Trump fills
He always has been
It used to drive me nuts cause he’d be a war monger or on counterpoint
Now though. He’s useful as all get out.
No more linda
It’s MR GREAT GRAHAM !
“McCain dying has had many positive benefits. He is not missed.”
Addition by subtraction.
The problem for the Rats now is after spending 25 years or so catering to their activist loons and marginalizing normal Americans. “Loons” are easily now 40% of the party and they’re completely out of control. The Rat leadership couldn’t govern responsibly now even if they wanted to!
Lindsay does better and better with no McVain around to mess him up.
Maybe Trump took care of whoever had some goods on Grahamnesty.
“I don’t want us to become as horrible as they are.”
There comes a time when we must get dirty in fighting back.
When we must be willing to spit on our hands, hoist a black flag, and begin to slit throats.
And until we accept that, the treasoncrats will keep on with their BS.
Apparently awaiting John McCain’s release from the Mortal Coil.
(Not sarcasm.)
Not all of them expected.
Lindsey was very popular guy when he was prosecuting the Clinton impeachment in the House. His popularity propelled him from the House to the Senate where he became a McCain butt boy, then McCain died.
