Lindsey Graham on Dems' threat to restructure Supreme Court

MARIA: WELCOME BACK. WE ARE BACK WITH SENATOR LINDSEY GRAHAM AND SENATOR, WE WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT POTENTIAL GUN CHANGES. WE KNOW FIVE, AT LEAST FIVE DEMOCRATIC SENATORS ARE THREATENING A RESTRUCTURING OF THE SUPREME COURT. IF THEY DO NOT GET THEIR WAY IN THESE GUN CASES. TELL US HOW YOU SEE IT. >> WELL, THIS IS BEEN A DREAM OF THE LEFT FOR DECADES TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF JUDGES ON THE COURT. PACK THEM WITH JUDGES OF THE COURT CAN DO, THE LEGAL SYSTEM WHAT THEY CANNOT DO THROUGH THE BALLOT BOX. THE DREAM OF EVERY LEFTIST IS TO HAVE A LIBERAL COURT AND THAT EVOLVES FROM THE BENCH. THE DREAM OF EVERY CONSERVATIVE IS TO HAVE JUDGES WHO WILL INTERPRET THE LAW, NOT MAKE THE LAW. WHEN YOU ARE EXPANDING THE COURT, THAT IS CODE FOR LIBERALS PACKING THE COURT. OVER MY DEAD BODY IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. WHEN THEY WANT TO DO AWAY WITH THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE IS TELLING EVERY RURAL AMERICA TO GO TO HELL. MOOD ME LOS ANGELES AND NEW YORK WOULD DECIDE WHO IS THE PRESIDENT, THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE ALLOWS RURAL AMERICAN TO HAVE A SAY ABOUT PICKING THE PRESIDENT. THEY ACCUSED DONALD TRUMP OF CHANGING THE SYSTEM. THEY ARE THE ONES TURNED UPSIDE DOWN BECAUSE IT CANNOT WIN IN THE CURRENT CONSTRUCTS OF THIS IDEA OF PACKING THE COURT HAS BEEN A DREAM OF THE COURT AND -- A DREAM OF LEFT AND WE WILL LET HAPPEN. MARIA: THEY HIT THE POWER THAT THE PRESIDENT HAS IN NAMING SUPREME COURT JUSTICES PRODIGIOUS EXTRAORDINARY WHAT YOU HEARING ON THE LEFT. I WANT TO GET YOUR TAKE ON THESE NEW FOX NEWS POLLS. JOE BIDEN IS IN THE LEAD STILL WITH 31 PERCENT TO LOOK AT ELIZABETH WARREN, SHE IS NOW SECOND LEAVING AT 20 PERCENT FOLLOWED BY BERNIE SANDERS. WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS IN TERMS OF HOW WEALTH ELIZABETH WARREN IS DOING AND BERNIE SANDERS? GIVEN THEIR SOCIALIST AGENDA. >> I THINK ALL OF THE ENERGY IN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS WITH BERNIE AND ELIZABETH WARREN AND THE SQUAD. I THINK THE SQUAD REPRESENTS THE HEART ANDSOUL OF THE DEMOCRATIC , MODERN DEMOCRATIC PARTY ON DOMESTIC POLICY AND FOREIGN POLICY. I SAW THE POLLS. I'VE NEVER BEEN MORE CONFIDENT OF PRESIDENT TRUMP BEING REELECTED THAN I AM RIGHT NOW. BECAUSE WHEN YOU GET ON THE STAGE WHETHER IT IS JOE BIDEN OR ELIZABETH WARREN OR BERNIE SANDERS, LOOK AT THE CONTRAST. THEY WANT TO BASICALLY TAKE YOUR PRIVATE HEALTHCARE AWAY FROM GIVE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS FREE HEALTHCARE, TAKING YOUR PRIVATE HEALTHCARE AWAY. THEY WANT HIGH TAXES, WE WANT LOW TAXES. THEY WILL GET THE MILITARY, THEY WILL PACK THE COURT WITH A BUNCH OF LIBERALS. WHEN IT COMES TO FOREIGN POLICY PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS DESTROYED ISIS. HE IS IN EVERYTHING OPPOSITE OF OBAMA. HE GOT OUT OF IRAN WHICH WAS A THREAT TO ISRAEL AND HE ADVOCATES A NUCLEAR WEAPON HE WILL USE APPEARED UNLESS WE MAKE A MISTAKE IN AFGHANISTAN AND IT IS OKAY TO REDUCE OUR PRESENCE IN IS OKAY TO WANT TO PAY LESS IN AFGHANISTAN BUT WE NEED PEOPLE OVER THERE TO PROTECT US FROM AL QAEDA AND ISIS. THE PRESIDENT WILL CLEAN THEIR CLOCK ON THE STAGE. WHEN YOU COMPARE WHAT HE HAS DONE WITH WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO DO, WEAK VERSUS STRONG FOREIGN POLICY, HIGH TAXES VERSUS LOWER TAXES, HEALTHCARE TAKEN AWAY FROM WORKING PEOPLE TO BE GIVEN TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. HE IS GOING TO WIN. I DON'T CARE WHAT THE POLLS SAY. THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY SO MUCH ON THE LEFT. MARIA: PRETTY INCREDIBLE! I DON'T KNOW WHAT THESE POLLS ARE SAYING. IF YOU LOOK AT EVERYTHING LEADING DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE THEY ARE BEATING DONALD TRUMP IN AHEAD-TO-HEAD. JOE BIDEN YOU KNOW, 50 PERCENT VERSUS 38 PERCENT, BERNIE SANDERS 48 PERCENT VERSUS 39 PERCENT. THE LIST GOES ON. YOU ARE NOT BUYING THIS? >> I AM NOT BUYING IT. I THINK PRESIDENT TRUMP, IF HE CAN LEAD US TO A SOLUTION ON GUNS WITH THE AVERAGE AMERICAN THAT IS A GOOD IDEA, MR. PRESIDENT. LET'S KEEP GUNS OUT OF THE HANDS OF DANGEROUS PEOPLE. WORK WITH JOE MANCHIN III AT OTHER PEOPLE TO FIND ENHANCED BACKGROUND CHECKS. DO SOME THINGS FOR ROADS AND BRIDGES, REACH ACROSS THE AISLE, TRYING TO FIND A SOLUTION TO OUR PROBLEMS THAT WILL HELP HIM. BUT HERE'S THE DEAL. WHEN YOU COMPARE WHAT HE HAS DONE AND WHAT HE WILL DO WITH WHAT THEY WILL DO, I WILL MAKE A PREDICTION. I DO NOT THINK ANY DEMOCRAT CAN BEAT PRESIDENT OF THE NOTE STATES WHO OPENLY WANTS ILLEGAL ENTRY AND GIVING EVERY IMMIGRANT FREE HEALTHCARE. IT'S EXTREME YOU CANNOT WIN WITH THAT AGENDA. IF YOU TAKE PEOPLES PRIVATE HEALTHCARE INSURANCE IN THE NAME OF MEDICARE FOR ALL YOU LOSE A LOT OF FOLKS CHRIS COONS YOU THINK WITH CONGRESSMAN ILHAN OMAR AND TLAIB -- >> IT HAS BEEN BIPARTISAN UP UNTIL NOW ABOUT ISRAEL. THOSE WHO WANT TO DESTROY ISRAEL WANT TO DESTROY US. NAME ONE RADICAL ISLAMIC GROUP THAT WANTS TO DESTROY ISRAEL THAT DOES NOT WANT TO DESTROY AMERICA. ISIS AND AL QAEDA PLEDGED TO HURT ISRAEL AND US. TLAIB AND OMAR CALLING FOR AN ECONOMIC BOYCOTT OF THE STATE OF ISRAEL WHICH WILL DESTROY THE STATE OF ISRAEL. THE REASON SHE IS NOT VISITING HER GRANDMOTHER IS BECAUSE SHE HAS EMBRACED THE DESTRUCTION OF ISRAEL THROUGH AN ECONOMIC BOYCOTT. SHE WAS OFFERED A CHANCE TO SEE HER GRANDMOTHER. SHE SAID ALL I WANT TO DO IS SEE MY GRANDMOTHER. THEY SAID YES AND SHE PULLED THE RUG OUT FROM UNDER THE OFFER. THE BOTTOM LINE HERE IS, THEY ARE RADICAL WHEN IT COMES TO ISRAEL, RADICAL IN THE ECONOMY, THEY ARE WEAK WHEN IT COMES TO
