Bash kept pressing him for answers though, so Graham relented and said he’d date Palin (“We’ll go hunting on our first date”), marry Fiorina (“Because she’s rich”), and he refused to make Clinton disappear forever.
The Republican presidential candidate, who has engaged in a number of jabs with Donald Trump, Wilmore had a suggestion for Paul in the next GOP debate. The choices: Sarah Palin, Carly Fiorina, and Hillary Clinton.
“I don’t drink very well, as you can tell from behind the bar”, he quipped during CNN’s “Politics on Tap” happy hour.
“[For marriage], Carly, because she’s rich”, Graham continued. But, Graham wouldn’t quite go so far as to say he would make Hillary Clinton disappear forever.
Graham also took a turn behind the bar, pouring shots and beers for the patrons, according to the Huffington Post. “With all due respect, I know there are a lot of us running but I don’t think I’m an undercard candidate when it comes to national security”. “I gotta really watch what I say here”, he joked at one point. “I think I have something to offer”.
