Democrats running in conservative states and districts habitually refer to themselves as moderates. It’s a tried and true tactic.

Unfortunately for Jamie Harrison — who’s giving Sen. Lindsey Graham the biggest scare of his political life — his mask of reason has been lifted to reveal his candid opinion on Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett.

In a display of hyperbole that would make Speaker Pelosi blush, Harrison claimed a Barrett confirmation would lead to decisions as infamous as Plessy v. Ferguson, where the Court in 1896 upheld the “separate but equal” legal doctrine used for racial segregation.

WATCH:

The condemnation from conservative Twitter was swift.

    1. Her babies skin color should have NOTHING to do with anything. Her understanding of Constitutional law is all that should matter.

  1. If you want to destroy this country and your FREEDOM go right ahead and vote for these
    low lifes. It is a time to TRY and unite this
    country and you have pure scum like both
    Obama’s trying to divide this country..along
    with AOC..Tjaib..Pressley and Omar..
    I personally love my country and feel that I am
    no better than anyone based on my skin color.
    You have seen what DemonRATS do to cities..
    don’t allow the entire country to be destroyed.
    Whether you like or hate President Trump..what
    has he done to warrant the traitorous treatment
    he has received.
    Obama and Biden along with Hillary..the FBI
    .and the CIA..tried to destroy our President..
    before he even took office..
    The Deep State does exist and with your help
    and votes it can finally come to an end.
    SUPPORT PRESIDENT TRUMP..YOUR FREEDOM
    DEPENDS ON IT….
    BIDEN IS A TRAITOR..ALONG WITH OBAMA.
    BIDEN IS A PUPPET AND SOROS AND OBAMA
    ARE THE PUPPETMASTERS.

    1. I want someone out here to show me HOW an “anchor baby”, born to TWO FOREIGN parents can becone a candidate for VP of the U.S. Apparently (just like with FRAUD obama). the U.S Constitution will AGAIN be ignored, because the “candidate” happens to have a “D” after her name.

      1. Easy! All you have to do is be a lying foreigner who lies to the easily fooled no-nothings and you are a cinch to win the Presidency. (see Obola)

      2. TO TAKE THIS ONE STEP FURTHER HOW ABOUT ILHAM OMARS CONGRESSIONAL SEAT BEING AN ILLEGITIMATE IMMIGRANT WHO GOT INTO OUR COUNTRY ON LIES. SHE MARRIED HER OWN BROTHER TO BE ALLOWED ENTRY INTO THE USA. SHE PAYS HER HUSBAND ALMOST $1,000,000 FOR CONSULTANTS FEES. SHE OPENLY DETEST JEWISH PEOPLE AND WILL EVENTUALLY LIKE TO INSTILL SHARIA LAW INTO OUR NOT LONG TO BE CONSTITUTION. I ALSO THINK THAT AG BARR AND JOHN DURHAM SHOULD RELEASE THE NAMES OF ALL THE FEDERAL EMPLOYEES AND POLITICIANS INVOLVED IN THE FAKE RUSSIAN COLLUSION ATTEMPTED BY THE DNC AND HILLARY AND BIDEN WANTING TO INVOKE THE LOGAN ACT AGAINST GENERAL MICHAEL FLYNN A 33 YEAR DEDICATED U.S. MILTARY MAN TO TRY AND BRING DOWN PRESIDENT TRUMP. OBAMA, BIDEN, CLAPPER, BRENNAN, SUSAN RICE, LORETTA LYNCH, JAMES COMEY, LISA PAGE, PETER STROZK, MUELLER AND ALL HIS DEMOCRATIC SUPPORTERS ON HIS TEAM BIASLY INVESTIGATING PRESIDENT TRUMP AND HIS CAMPAIN BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER HIS DULY ELECTED POSITION OF PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. IF ALL OF THESE NAMED INDIVIDUALS ARE NOT PROSECUTED THEN WE DEFINITELY ARE A COUNTRY WITHOUT THE RULE OF LAW FOR ALL OUR CITIZENS, POLITICAL OR NON-POLITICAL. HILARY CLINTON IS ONE THAT I ALMOST FORGOT ABOUT. THEY ALLNEED TO BE PROSECUTED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW, IF WE WANT TO BELIEVE IN OUR COUNTRY’SFREEDOMS AND LIBERTY’S. IF NOT I WANT TO KNOW IN ADVANCE OF WHAT THE LOOP HOLES ARE FOR ME AS A REGULAR CITIZEN TO COMMIT A FELONY AND NOT WORRY ABOUT BEING PROSECUTED BY OUR JUSTICE DEPARTMENT AS SOME PEOPLE HAVE A FREE GET OUT OF JAIL PASS. WE ALL SHOULD HAVE ONE OF THOSE ALSO IF THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT DOESN’T USE THE RULE OF LAW TO PROSECUTE THESE OFFENDERS.

      3. When the Party of the Mob or the Majority Rules has no regard for a Constitutional Republic or Rule of Law, AND NO ONE ENFORCES IT, these are the results.

      4. Think about this:
        Joe Biden is elected.
        Three weeks later, the Democrats under Nancy Pelosi “discover” that Biden is incapacitated by dementia, and invoke the 25th amendment and remove him from office.
        They then attempt to install Harris as President but Nancy Pelosi ‘Discovers” that Harris in not eligible to hold that office because neither of her parents were citizens of the US when Kamala was born here.
        There has not been enough time to appoint a VP.

        That conveniently means that the Speaker of the House is the next in line to the Presidency.

        Half the country commits suicide, and the other half prepare for war.
        .

  2. The Demonrats put you in chains, idiot! She is going to keep you out of chains because she follows the law.

  3. Jaimie Harrison is a big fat liar. We don’t need another pelosi lapdog we are already dealing with her other flea bitten bum Cunningham. If we wanted pelosi we would move to the cesspool CA. Harrison likes to switch his vernacular to the “I’m a poor black man of the south” he ain’t poor he calls Orangeburg the corridor of shame. It’s not! He is looking for pity and those stupid white people that like to virtue signal.

  4. Matt Whitlock said in his Twitter post, “And people remember that he was a Podesta lobbyist and lifetime far-left activist. Running in South Carolina.”
    I agree with Mr. Whitlock’s views and see Graham as a quaisi conservative who is much better than Harrison for our country meaning conservatives should vote for him. However, and I hate to admit it, conservative voters can be quite stupid at times. Remember how Alabama conservatives threw the honorable Judge Roy Moore, who has a great track record of being an honest public servant and Constitutionalist, under the bus because a few women made debunked claims of sexual harassment against Judge Moore that allegedly happened 40 years ago but had no proof, had never filed any complaints and they all had personal reasons to attack Moore.
    Voters, before you believe any last minute claim against a conservative, look for proof and discount claims without it.

  5. Proving once again that racism runs in all colors and the yell of racism of their color is only a reflection of themselves.

  6. Just another dem lib spewing hate. S. Carolina hopefullynis smarter than to elect an abortion favorable loon.

  7. The Demoncrats and their chained followers will lie to conveniently chain others to their socialist notions for America. They are part and parcel for the Islamic ideology for the sake of pursuing their socialistic goals. What Demoncrats fail to realize is that Islam will consume them when they least expect it. I and others like me who see this evil for what it is will be prepared to stand to the death in order to expose them for the liars they are. I’m not talking about turning the other cheek either. The TRUTH will consume them all!

  8. Jamie Harrison has never been in chains so he isn’t going back to anything anything like that. And his assertion that if Amy Coney Barrett is seated on the SCOTUS this nation could make Plessy v. Ferguson “established law again” is at least disingeuous, perhaps more like a truly ridiculous, absurd statement based on ignorance and stupidity, both hallmarks of the left.

  9. Harrison cannot fool these South Carolinians. I am afraid that he is messing with the wrong people. South Carolina is too small to be a country and too large to be an insane asylum.
    Do not get me started with your statement about chains,

  10. Does anyone really believe anyone with a “D” behind their name is a moderate at this point? They all try to pretend they are, but we should all know better at this point.

  11. Talk about brazen—-These demonRATS spout all kinds of anti-American garbage, and only idiots vote for them. Too, many Americans listen to fake news for they don’t have OAN. Comcast and Xfinity won’t carry OAN.

  12. Reminds me so much of Andrew Gillum who ran for governor of Florida , he lost and months later was found in a Miami Beach hotel room with a male hooker, bags of drugs, and him past out naked on the floor in his own vomit

  13. is there ever anything a Democrat does that helps adds or befits in anyway a working American citizen in all all these Socialistic legislators in office or running for office has a thought in mind for the American people but to those on welfare for a vote or giving all the illegals more benefits they never paid for and are less than the citizens can receive. The Democrats are so in love with money they will try and strip legal Americans into poverty to serve their own selfish political desires. WE NEED TERM LIMITS AND AND FLAT BASED PAY for every legislator so they cant go in as a popper an come out as a multi millionaire

  14. You are already in chains, you idiot. The Dems have kept you on the Dem Plantation for the last 150 years; and you are not smart enough to simply walk off.

  15. Harrison is a POS. Please people do your part th o
    defeat this person. The only thing DemonRATS
    run on is HATE..HATE..HATE..
    President Trump fights for all of us and seeks to
    unite this country..
    The DemonRATS use racist agenda to divide and
    openly support Antifa and BLM to use their agendas
    of hate and violence.
    SUPPORT PRESIDENT TRUMP AND TURN THIS COUNTRY RED..VOTE EVERY DEMONRAT AND RINO OUT OF OFFICE…YOUR FREEDOM D ED PENDS ON
    IT….TRUMP 2030
