Is he going to keep on being the same Lindsey Graham who said “If we nominate Trump, it will destroy the Republican Party, and we’ll deserve it,” and “If you don’t like Joe Biden, there’s something wrong with you?” Or a different Lindsey Graham?

It is still a marvel why Lindsey is so willing to take one up the shitter for Trump.

Nothing can be done to him and he knows it. He too could shoot a man on Fifth Avenue without much worry of repercussions. Trump has basically set the standard that Republicans in any high office can act with impunity.

“I get accused of everything, I’m just going to keep being me,” Graham told CNN. “I called up the secretary of state to find out how you verify a signature and what database you use because I think it’s important that if we’re going to vote by mail, we get it right.”

Mind your own fucking biz then Linds. Georgia’s ain’t it.

He was just re-elected and almost certainly won’t run in 2026, and ethics probes are toothless.

If Biden doesn’t investigate this @$$hole, there will be no end of Senators and governors pressuring election officials.

The GOP is nearly there in their efforts to expand the Overton window to Infinity and Beyond as they complete their defenestration of norms.
