Grahamnesty is a term attributed to Lindsey Graham's pro-illegal immigration and pro-amnesty views.[1] Coined by Rush Limbaugh,[2] the term effectively criticizes the senator's RINO leanings on immigration, such as his role in the "Gang of Eight" (immigration) in promoting "immigration reform".[3]

Graham himself admitted in October 2015 during his presidential run that critics called him Lindsey Grahamnesty, and proceeded to justify his pro-mass migration voting record by asserting his re-election in 2014, saying that "you can vote for immigration reform in the reddest of red states and still win because I am still here."[4]
Graham ended his presidential campaign a month later.[5]
