Trump's deplorable "I'm glad he's dead" post about Robert Mueller is public record, and it needs to be out all over the place now. Contrast it with these gracious words, and any human being who has a trace of decency in their character can clearly see the difference.

It's hard to resist the temptation to trash talk, especially with McConnell also hiding out and all that's going on there. What decent South Carolinians need to do is recognize the character being shown here and elect this woman to the Senate.
