Lindsey Graham: Any policy that drives up cost of Corona, tequila, or margaritas a big-time bad idea

Paraphrasing his tweet:




Simply put, any policy proposal which drives up costs of Corona, tequila, or margaritas is a big-time bad idea. Mucho Sad. (2)



His preceding tweet was more serious:




Border security yes, tariffs no. Mexico is 3rd largest trading partner. Any tariff we can levy they can levy. Huge barrier to econ growth /1

Vile piss water.
