Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) on Tuesday returned to begging voters for campaign donations during a Fox News appearance — successfully making a first plea before he was abruptly cut off during a second attempt to scrounge for contributions.

The South Carolina lawmaker shamelessly groveled for donations twice during Laura Ingraham’s show as he faces perhaps one of the toughest reelection bids of his career before the network cut him off:

Tuesday night was not the first time Graham, who faces a formidable fundraiser — Democratic challenger Jaime Harrison — has asked for cash on Fox News:

In fact, he’s begged so many times that The Lincoln Project, a conservative group that has strongly opposed President Donald Trump’s reelection bid plugged Graham’s haunting fundraising appeal into a horror movie, suggesting in a video released late Tuesday that his whining pleas would only need to be endured for seven more days as the election enters its final week. 

Ahead of the confirmation of Trump’s Supreme Court pick, Graham had taken to using his  promise to deliver the votes to confirm then-Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett to the high court as part of his pitch to voters to fill his pockets with campaign donations.

“My opponent will raise $100 million in the state of South Carolina,” Graham said late last month on the network in an apparent inflation of figures raised by his opponent.

“I’m being killed financially,” he added. “This money is because they hate my guts.”

Graham later suggested during an interview with The Hill published last week that Harrison’s campaign funds had come from “shadowy figures” and floated a potential investigation into their origins.

Per the Associated Press, Graham raised $28 million in the third quarter, a record for a Republican Senate candidate that Harrison more than doubled — raising $57 million in the same period. Harrison’s campaign told AP that the total busted previous records becoming the largest sum achieved by any Senate candidate during a single three-month period.

Many Trump supporters, including a number of elderly fans, were stranded in the cold on Tuesday night for hours after attending a rally for President Donald Trump at an airport in Omaha, Nebraska.

Hours after President Trump took off on Air Force One, local police were rushing in to help the most vulnerable in the crowd get warm amid the icy temperature as they waited for a return bus to reach their cars, the Washington Post reported.

At least seven people were taken to hospitals, according to Omaha Scanner. Police did not provide reporters on the scene with an exact count of how many needed treatment, the Post said. 

Aaron Sanderford, an Omaha World-Herald reporter, tweeted that the Trump campaign said it had provided enough buses but that the flow of traffic was delayed on the small, two-lane airport access road since it was limited to one direction that was more than three miles away from the parking lot where many supporters had left their cars.

While the President departed on Air Force One around 9 p.m., by the Post’s account, it was nearly 10:30 p.m., when many were still waiting in the freezing cold to board buses back to their cars.

Per Omaha Scanner, officers began reporting a number of cases of elderly people at-risk in the cold.

“President Trump took off in Air Force One 1 hr 20 minutes ago, but thousands of his supporters remain stranded on a dark road outside the rally,” CNN’s Jeff Zeleny tweeted, noting that he also overheard a police officer saying at one point that another 30 buses were needed. 

Soon, Police began shuttling some people to their cars to get them out of the elements.

It wasn’t until after midnight — more than three-and-a-half hours after Trump departed that the rally site was fully cleared of freezing fans, according to an account of the events in tweets by Sanderford.

During his speech, Trump repeated an apparent favorite false statement on the coronavirus pandemic, saying that “we’re making that final turn” on  COVID-19 and that “normal life will fully resume.”

The comments came as COVID-19 cases have spiked in Nebraska with the state averaging more than 800 new cases daily for nine consecutive days, the World-Herald noted. 

Though the campaign checked temperatures and offered masks, few were actually worn, the World-Herald reported.
