'She's considered to be a fair-minded, highly gifted jurist. She is one of the most decent people I've ever met,' the Republican senator said.

from the high court at the end of its term this summer if a successor has been confirmed by the Senate.

Childs has served on the federal bench since 2010 and was a state trial court judge on the South Carolina Circuit Court. She also worked as a commissioner of the state's Workers Compensation Commission. "I'd like to see the court have a little more balance, some common sense on it," Graham said."Everybody doesn't have to be from Harvard or Yale. It's OK to go to a public university and get your law degree."

"It says to every little child up there growing up under moderate circumstances, needing the entire community to help raise it, getting scholarships to go up to school because she couldn't afford to go otherwise, going to public schools because you didn't get an offer from one of the big private schools — it says to them, you've got just as much of a chance to benefit from the greatness of this country as everybody else," he said.

I’d be more apt to believe him if he stopped at “I Can’t think”

Jajajjajjajaja clown!

Why does he like her?

Because GOP are whining toddlers who need a 'child' pacifier they can toy with? Will MichelleChilds be a toy for GOP shit_annigans?

I thought he ran for and lost the candidacy of his party for President to Trump?

gtconway3d did he put on his liberal Linsey costume today?

Graham can be decent when he wants. Wish he'd dump Trump.

Go away you .ussy

gtconway3d He definitely knows how to dance on the fence today and gripe about her tomorrow!

Who the hell is that man and what has he done with Lindsey Graham?

And Lindsey Graham is the moral measurer of what ? This is stupid, Graham doesn't need to be spoken to.

great! he looks handsome.

Give it 24 hours and he’ll forget he ever said it.

His own words D J Trump is, was, and will be in direct support of those that would commit insurrection and physical assault on the Capitol of the United States of America. We must fear him more than we fear those nations that would destroy our freedom and democracy

gtconway3d After seeing the other people Graham supports(Trump, McConnell...) if I was Michelle Childs I would not want Grahams endorsement. Just like Trump wanted Wray. Why was Wray acceptable to Trump? Wray should be fired. Why does Graham want Child?

What side of his mouth did he say this out of?

gtconway3d Must be testing the waters again to see how much he can get away with, before Trumpians corner him in an airport.

First, Graham needs to sit down with MADEA, for just one hour, and talk about the unmet needs for all people of color on the Supreme Court.... just one hour.... it'll do him Good!!!

gtconway3d .. look at the last three pieces of feces that republicans chose for SCOTUS judges. I think I'd rather NOT take the recommendation of ANY republican!!

gtconway3d Lindsey got a little confused. He meant to say that Michelle Malkin was the best possible person to nominate to the Supreme Court (either that or Candace Owens).

She is a Gamecock!🐔

I'm happy to hear that from Graham. I'm outraged that the President of the United States is making this appointment strictly on the basis of race. That is not only wrong, it is evil, and it is probably illegal and unconstitutional.

gtconway3d Maybe stay away from anyone in a red state where they can screw with it.

gtconway3d Trump hasn't told him yet!

gtconway3d He says that now.

Does that mean she is owned by Russia also?

gtconway3d Do folks really care what Lindsey says?

gtconway3d Look at all he said about TFG. If he’s breathing, he’s lying.

He wants to claim the credit

SCOTUS

gtconway3d Nobody cares what lying Lindsey has to say because it all depends on what day of the week it is & what news channel he's being carried on.

gtconway3d I would see I if Michelle Obama is interstellar. If so nominate her and watch the republicans heads spin.

$$$

gtconway3d If Kiss-ass-suck- up Graham is FOR her there must be multiple reasons to be *against* her.

gtconway3d '...a graduate of the University of South Carolina School of Law.' Good. No Harvards or Yaleies please.

gtconway3d That’s to make his constituents happy

means not a damn thing

LindseyGrahamSC Do you think of your ladybugs often?

Someone is trying to clean up his brand.

Who the guy that commit felony Election tampering wasn't it Georgia?

But he won’t vote to confirm. He has said one thing then done the opposite many times.

Until Trump says he doesn't like Michelle Childs. . .then it's 👎👎from the good ole boy.

fuerainmigranteenchile fueravenezolanos fueracolombianos fueraypresopiñera

But still won't vote for her

wait ... what did Mr. Bait-n-Switch say? Give it about a month.

I care about her judicial philosophy, it must be in line with America's tenets — those expressed in the Declaration of Independence and Federalist Papers, and enumerated in the Constitution. What about Childs that makes her the 'better person' among the other choices?

Me thinks Lady G be doing some stress eating!

Lindsay doesn’t look well

the 2 faces of Linsey

Really? That’s out of the question then.

Than that mena you pick the opposite of what graham thinks

That does her in.

Goes to show the GOP is reaching out, willing to work with a hostile opposition.

Judge Michelle Childs being considered for Supreme Court, White House confirmsThe White House confirmed on Friday that South Carolina District Court Judge Michelle Childs is being considered as a replacement to retiring Justice Stephen Breyer on the United States Supreme Court. If only the most qualified were elevated to the Supreme Court—regardless of race and gender—the history of SCOTUS wouldn’t be so white and so male. Seems qualified. Great!
