Republican presidential candidate and Sen. Lindsey Graham (SC) said at the CNN debate Wednesday that he’s not worried about Kentucky county clerk Kim Davis “attacking me” like he worries about “radical Islamic terrorists.”
Davis was jailed for refusing to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples.
“Kim Davis, I’m not worried about her attacking me,” Graham said at the debate. “I am worried about radical Islamic terrorists who are already here planning another 9/11. We’re at war, folks. I’m not fighting a crime.”
“I want to have a legal system that understands the difference between finding a war and fighting a crime and here’s the reality,” Graham continued. “Young men from the Mideast are different than Kim Davis. And we’ve got to understand that.”
