The senator from South Carolina said the elections were definitely not a Republican wave.

The loyalist said a wave would have captured New Hampshire and Colorado. Sen. Michael Bennet (D) defeated Joe O'Dea in Colorado.

Graham was surprised that Democrats performed well in a lot of these swing districts. He predicted that the GOP would win control of the Senate at 51 seats.

The suggestion that Donald Trump hurting Republican candidates was pushed back by Graham.

I don't think it's really. Graham thinks it was a referendum on Biden. That is a very good night if we get the Senate majority.

Graham had some "unsoliciting advice" for Biden.

We would take the House and the Senate. He wants everyone to go to the border and see if there is a way to fix it. I have a bill with Elizabeth Warren to regulate social media and maybe we can do something in the energy space. Something can come of a divided government.
