is going to separate the wheat from the chaff.

Republican politicians are going to show us which ones are decent human beings and which ones are Republican Party above all else politicians hungry for power.

It appears that Graham is the former. While we may not agree with most of his positions, it would appear as though he doesn't want to cause unnecessary harm to families or individuals who are here in the USA. He recognizes them as human beings, not an "other."

You can work with people like that. Even if you disagree on many positions.
