Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-VT) raked Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) over the coals on Wednesday after the Republican senator repeatedly harangued and thundered over Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson during her confirmation hearing, refusing to let her finish answering his questions.
1000 bucks says Lindsey was drunk.
The question is: why?
Thank God Lindsey is not my brother. But he definitely needs a keeper.
At this point, I think even Lindsey hates Lindsey
Well, it is Wednesday, you know.
Whatever Trump told Graham during that golf game has him on a short leash. Both he and our nation would be better off if he would just publicly admit to whatever Trump is blackmailing him with.
I am curious… did Lindsey Graham vote to confirm Judge Jackson for her current position? If so then he is guilty of egregious hypocrisy.
It appears to me that Sen. Graham is [a] drunk. I think he was drunk yesterday and he will be drunk tomorrow. Probably.
“Stormed” out of the hearing? Flounced. I believe the appropriate description is “flounced out of the hearing.”
Good lord, Lindsey. Nobody loves a drama queen.
The poor goobers…They know when it comes to the confirmation vote (which cannot be filibustered) Judge Jacksonn will be confirmed.
And if Justice Thomas croaks we get a twofer and that has the goobers pulling their hair out already.
Yes, yes he did.
It does seem that there’s a lot of self-loathing going on with ol’ Lindsey. It really is yet another pathetic display of his tortured personality.
Sashayed?
Minced?
I doubt if Linsey was drunk, He is an emotionally immature insecure person. He does not belong in the Senate. Disgraceful.
Linds runs out of the room to regroup and critique his performance.
Dude needs an intervention. Serious emotional problems are on view…and recorded/archived for eternity because the Senate really believes its own myths about being the world’s most exclusive, deliberative body. It has become a GQP frat house of fools, mendacities, con artists, and performance show ponies, most of whom think they should be President, Graham amongst them of course.
Can they add another day to the confirmation hearings? It will be must-see tee-vee when Graham has a stroke.
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) - completely lacking any rational reason to object - resorts to a George Wallace stance and attempts to block the doorway and unleashes a lengthy vitriolic diatribe that roughly translates to “No Liberal Black Women Allowed - DAMN-IT”
Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-VT) surveyed the sputtering petulant Graham and said
" Get out of the doorway and shut up you twit!"
Yes, yes he is a raging hypocrite.
Here’s more concerning what he said about campaigning Trump:
“a race-baiting, xenophobic, religious bigot. He doesn’t represent my party. He doesn’t represent the values that the men and women who wear the uniform are fighting for.”
…and…
“Donald Trump is not a conservative Republican. He’s an opportunist. He’s not fit to be president of the United States.”
