Despite having voted more with Trump’s agenda than any other South Carolina Republican, Norman could not compete with the idea that Lindsey Graham’s sister somehow deserved the president’s endorsement more. Don’t think her potential rubber stamp for the military didn’t have a lot to do with that.

Trump told reporters at the Graham rally four days ago that “she’s going to do what the military wants, and really what the president wants.”

What the “military wants”? What the “president wants”? Is that the role of a U.S. Senator representing South Carolina?

*note this article refers to the "Bad Cop War Party", this is not an article about the DNC as the "Good Cop War Party"

But will the nepotism crony candidate win the election against the Democrats, or would someone chosen on merit have had a better chance?
