Interesting that Lindsey would use the word “blow” is it not? Or maybe it’s just me and a salacious imagination. Only a few weeks ago Donald Trump was saying how he much preferred diplomacy to settle differences with Iran and now, according to his top lapdog surrogate, the U.S. intends to lay waste to Iran and clean up financially doing so. The masks are off.

For an American statesman to crow about “blowing the hell out of” a foreign adversary is a new low for Graham personally and definitely a new low for the United States. Even Meghan McCain thinks Graham is off the walls, so that speaks for itself.

Graham’s inflammatory rhetoric has prompted alarm even among conservative figures typically aligned with aggressive foreign policy positions. Meghan McCain, daughter of the late Senator John McCain, issued a direct plea to the Trump administration regarding Graham’s role as a surrogate for the administration’s messaging.

“I’ve known Lindsey Graham since I was a child,” McCain wrote. “I am imploring anyone who will listen in the Trump administration to stop sending this man out as a surrogate. He is scaring people and doing damage to whatever message you’re trying to sell to the American public about the Iran war.”

McCain’s criticism suggests that even within Republican circles, concern is mounting about Graham’s inflammatory language potentially undermining efforts to build public support for continued military action in the Middle East.

I wonder if the day will ever come when we find out what happened to Lindsey Graham? To go from being the protege of John McCain to a slobbering sychophant of Donald Trump? That’s some journey.

  1. It’s not surprising that a consummate milquetoast like Lindsey Graham would turn out to covet some Stolen Glory. Just one more example of the infernal compact between the Phony Tough and the Crazy Brave that brought us Watergate and the Vietnam War, except this time there are no Crazy Braves involved — just closet sadists and feeble-minded sycophants…

  2. McCain made some big mistakes. One of them was to take Graham under his wing (Biden helped with this I must add) and on this one the mistake was that McCain thought Graham was a protege when in fact he was a PARASITE.

    I’ve likened Graham to a lamprey which technically isn’t an eel but for all intents and purposes is one and a nasty one even by eel standards at that. It’s circular mouth with those multiple rings of teeth latched on to a host and can’t be dislodged once those teeth are sunk in. Even if McCain realized it at some point there was nothing he could do. The ONLY thing that will cause a lamprey to detach is realizing its host is too weak and near dying to sustain it. Only then will it detach and seek another host.

    I’m guessing no one in DC wanted him, because in McCain’s final year it was apparent what Graham was – a parasite. Lamprey Lindsey and they ensured he wouldn’t be able to latch on. Trump on the other hand needed Senators to give him credibility and Graham knew that by sucking up to Trump he could get close enough to latch that nasty circular lamprey mouth with those rows and rows of teeth into Trump’s side.

    The ONLY thing that will cause Graham to detach himself is when Trump is dying. Ironically by feeding on a political host as rich as a President nothing else will be enough to sustain Graham and you can be sure if Trump kicks the bucket tomorrow Vance will order his Secret Service detail to keep Lamprey Lindsey fifty feet away!

    So Graham will ‘die’ not long after Trump. Or, diseased as Trump clearly is Graham’s ‘host’ might wind up inadvertently poisoning HIM and he dies off first.

  3. What did he say, “If we elect trump, he will destroy us and we will deserve it?” I’d suggest a less expansive wording: “If I help elect trump, he will destroy me and I will deserve it.” That seems to be happening.

    There’s something really, really rotten in Graham’s past and eventually it will come out.
