What a shame it is to watch Lindsey Graham grovel and kiss Donald Trump’s ass. Once a statesman, since Trump’s corrupt election in 2016, Graham has gone down the Trump rabbit hole.
The senior Senator from South Carolina seems unable to make a decision prior to consulting with Trump on the most insignificant of matters. Worse yet, if Trump changes his position, Graham immediately changes his position to align with that of his political puppeteer.
I get that Graham is jockeying to keep his Senate seat, and Trump has proven that if you step out of line with him, he will target your campaign, and you will more than likely lose the election. But Graham has taken ass kissing to a whole new shameless public level. Watching Graham writhe as the “fake” media queries him on Trump’s blatant lies and public fuckups, makes me feel like I’m watching a low budget porn with a sexually ambiguous Graham and his political Sugar Daddy “The Teflon Don.” It simply makes me feel dirty, cheap, and cheated.
Graham will never be seen the same again. At 63 Graham still had a couple of decades of dignified statehood ahead of him, but he will forever be scarred by what has now defined his legacy, the unforgivable defense of Trump’s Treasonous behavior and harmful lies.
