Then she added that people in South Carolina are less worried about foreign affairs than they are about affordability, boys and girls sports, the Second Amendment, illegal immigration, and the Save America Act.

Woodson notes that Trump is hoping for a Graham win to restore some of the power that is slipping away as his popularity continues to slide to new lows.
podcast-host
Primary candidates he backed for governor in Iowa, Georgia, Wyoming, and Minnesota all lost, as did those he backed in congressional primaries in Michigan and Tennessee.
podcast-host
Indeed, as Graham was fumbling the debate last Tuesday, two former teachers, endorsed by Democrats, flipped the Sarasota Florida School Board.
podcast-host
That board had been dominated by right wing candidates since twenty twenty two, led by Moms for Liberty co-founder Bridget Ziegler, who has said public schools are indoctrination centers for the radical left, and that she wanted to bring religious values to them.
