Republican South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham said on Wednesday that he cannot join others in opposing the electoral college voting certificate.
Graham pointed out the fact that the objections had succeeded only in holding the rest of the country hostage in a bid to end the post-Civil War reconstruction and had ultimately ushered in the Jim Crow era.
Graham said, having a commission chosen by Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell and John Roberts is not going to get you to where we want to go.
Graham went on to say that all it would do is delay the inevitable while giving “credibility to a dark chapter of our history.”
He still believes that President Donald Trump had been a consequential president but that it was time to admit that it was over.
“All I can say is count me out, enough is enough,” Graham said, adding that it was time to accept the rulings of multiple courts and move on.
