I can’t tell if this is real or satire

Does he not realize that the Hagia Sophia is not under the control of the US in any way, shape, or form?
Well yeah. But since the war in iran is now totally and completely won. They need a new barbaric country to liberate.
Do you not realize that "consent" is a foreign concept to conservatives?

His drooling constituency won't
If I had to guess, I'm assuming this is coming from the seemingly common belief amongst the crowd of a certain political persuasion that Christians are the most persecuted people in the world ever, and that Muslims are trying to kill us all or convert us all to their religion?
and that Muslims are trying to kill us all or convert us all to their religion.
It's always projection with these motherfuckers.
Motherfucking abrahamic religious fucknuts who apparently worship the same god always infighting thinking they're the "better" religion.
God, if he's real, must be rolling his eyes and simultaneously facepalming so hard right now.
Global north always does this.
US bombs some country in middle east, the people there fight back as self-defense, US says they are fighting in name of religion, and then US commits war crimes there in name of "spreading civilization."
Just using same rhetoric used against native americans. And people can't progress during war so US uses that to justify occupation.
Surely the good people of South Carolina will not elect this obvious incompetent cretin to the Senate.

Muslims got Hagia Sophia and Christians got Alhambra and the Mosque of Cordoba. Bet he doesn’t want to return those.
Ms lindsey probably thinks the HAGIA sophia was a christian church before.
This dipshit is getting roasted by russia fucking today over this. I mean. Where in the fuck did this even come from??

I'm sorry I just assumed this was satire lol.
I mean their propaganda machine created the SC situation to begin with.
I'm sure they'll go after the Vatican next. Because it's not Catholic enough.
Sean Hannity just renounced his Catholicism because of that little Trump/Pope spat.
Their “Christianity” is Messianic Trumpism.
They should have pay the king with praise and dollars like when they used to. /s
Is he really that stupid? I mean, the intellectual demands in American politics have not been high in the last few decades, but this is a real low point.
I've been there. Beautiful building with so much history. Definitely NOT located in South Carolina.
I wonder if some deep dark corner of his mind thought Türkiye is near Georgia, and so is South Carolina, therefore I should have a say..
For those who don't know, the original Hagia Sophia was one of the most impressive construction speed-run of all time. Completed in just under 6 years with 4th 6th century tech. They botched it a bit so the roof fell but still very impressive.
Edit: 6th century tech, first church was made in 4th century, current structure with the speed run was started in 532 and finished in 537.
What’s impressive is that it’s survived centuries of earthquakes without seriously falling apart
The fuck

How is this not a shitpost?
Southern states breed a type of politician that is what Donald Trump is on a pettier and smaller scale - you could say they were the prototype. Try Ma Ferguson and Alfalfa Bill Murray for stupid fucks that made their way to Governor (Ma Ferguson is probably(?) the originator of “if English was good enough for Jesus, it’s good enough for me”; Alfalfa Bill Murray almost started a Texas/Oklahoma war).
Sorta like how MTG, and Michelle Bachman before her started. National attention for saying stupid shit = avalanche of votes on name recognition in your stupid home state.
I would love the US to do that just for the AKP voters in Turkey to see the fact that Erdoğan is the strongest soldier of the American and Israeli imperialism with their own eyes when he remakes Haghia Sophia into a church.
Come on Murica! We need to liberate all those muslim turkeys for Thanksgiving and we get our Huge Sofia back! Yee-haw!
As someone who lives in South Carolina, there is one small benefit to this guy being such a nutcase, He's distracting Lindsey and his PACs, we've gotten a couple fliers in the mail from Lindsey Graham affiliates calling out Mark Lynch's crazy antics (most specifically his calls to legalize cocaine). Haven't seen one ad attacking the leading Democrat, Annie Andrews. And sure, that will probably pick up after the primaries are over, but I do love watching Republicans waste money fighting each other.
Feels crazy to see this. But I saw some headline where after Iran, Turkey is next on Israel's list. This could be painting the seeds?
South Carolina will revive the Byzantines?
I'd honestly be curious to know to which Christian denomination he believes it should be returned.
lol, it's complicated. ;-) Also FTG!! Well, really both of them Graham and Lynch. smh.
ABSOLUTELY NOT.
The only real heirs to Byzantium are the delightful micro nation of Byzantium Novum
He going to lobby for Spain to return the Seville or Cordoba Cathedrals to become mosques again as they were original built?
Who is this guy, and why is he so stupid?
