Donald Trump‘s personal lapdog Lindsey Graham went on television last night to once again gush about his master’s dominance.
Speaking to Newsmax, Graham, who spent last weekend at Mar-a-Lago, had nothing but kind words for the disgraced one-term, twice-impeached ex-president who sicced an angry mob on him and his colleges just last month.

Graham said he doesn’t think Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell‘s denouncement of Trump after his second Senate impeachment trial was “reflective” of how most of the GOP caucus felt.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“That’s his opinion,” Graham told Newsmax. “I don’t think it’s reflective of the Republican conference, but he’s an individual senator, he can have his say.”
McConnell received widespread criticism from members of his own party when he said Trump was “practically and morally responsible” for the insurrection on the U.S. Capitol… then voted to acquit him anyway.

Graham went on to say, “I spent the weekend with President Trump. He’s more determined than ever to grow this party, not shrink it. He is the most dominant voice in the Republican Party.”
“His ideas will stand the test of time,” he added, before calling on everyone to “rally around” Trump, who he said is the “most consequential Republican.”

Like a good sub, the antigay senator from South Carolina has also been praising Trump every chance he gets in media interviews lately.
“If he ran, it would be his nomination for the having,” Graham told the Washington Post last week. “People appreciate his fighting spirit, he’s going to dominate the party for years to come.”
He continued showering Trump with praise in an appearance on Fox News when he said, “We need to work with President Trump. We can’t do it without him.”
Does anyone know if Lindsey Graham has moved into Mar-A-Lago yet?

Trump is scheduled to attend the annual Conservative Political Action Conference in Orlando, Florida this weekend, where he will give his first speech since leaving the White House. Rumors has it he plans to announce his 2024 run.
When asked by Sean Hannity this week if he thought Trump would run again, Graham coyly responded, “Stay tuned.”

Seriously Graham?
Queerty is now actively gay bashing to get a dig in at someone whose political views don’t align with your own?
Please explain how being a submissive gay man is either funny or such a detestable pejorative.?
MetaMichael
Lighten up!
UlfRaynor
MetaMichael, I’ll remind you of that the next time some conservative or sports figure says something similar about a gay man and you get your panties all in a bunch about it.

It cracks me up how the “writers” on this site are so caught up in everything Lindsey.
About 50% of the gay pop is conservative, yet this site does nothing but spew vitriol like little bitches.

“About 50% of the gay pop is conservative,”
In what world is this?
Al
Biden won the LGBTQ vote 61% to 28%. Are you suggesting that 22% of conservative LGTBQs voted for Biden anyway?? That doesn’t say much for Trump
Fname Optional Lname
50%? well we all know that is so far from the truth only Fox news or a Trump lemming would even consider it as fact.
Bengali
Sicced an angry mob on Graham and his “colleges”?
Fname Optional Lname
Yes, Graham was screaming at an officer during the riot because he feared for his safety. He screamed that the officer did not do enough to protect him. He denounced Trump for an entire ten minutes and then waffled back as soon as he realized there were still enough lemmings who were remaining loyal.
SteveM
Maybe Graham is seeking a sexual relationship with Trump?
AxelDC
I will never understand why these people continue to suck up to the biggest loser on the planet. Trump is absolute screw up who has failed at everything in life. How do you worship a man who lost $100 million inheritance?

Someone has a pile of video with his pants around his ankles getting smashed by a bunch of street hustlers. Either that or he’s madly in love with the orange hemorrhoid. He is right though, trump is truly representative of the GQP.
douglen221
I think you’re right—– guess Graham and Pence must fight over who gets to suck Trump’s dick first….both of them are pathetic, uber closet case LOSERS!!!!
Phillip
Does the “good doggie” want his bone now?
I wish Graham would either resign of SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP!
I’m so tired of him him still trying to win a pat on the head from Drumpf.
While he was at Mar a Lago, did he fetch his Master’s slippers and news paper?
What does Drumpf actually have on Graham which makes him grovel like this when it comes to speaking about Donald Drumpf when before the election in 2016 it was an 180° difference about how bad Drumpf would be if he ever became the POTUS.
Then his private emails were stolen and this sniveling, crawling quisling of a person was left licking his shoes. There is something Drumpf has (I think) that he’s holding over this poor excuse of a person and it is obviously working.

What a shame. Lady G used to denounce Trump. Look at him now. Complete and utter lapdog. What happened to him?
LilMesican
Okay, can we move on from Trump? But until we do… What dirt does Trump have on Graham to keep him so close???
Essie
Apparently, there is film. This is the rumor from back in 2016 or so, around the time Lindy did a 180 and started sucking up to the Dumpster. Dump has hinted at it. It has to be true because Graham hated Dump for a very long time. Nobody changes their mind that fast and that totally, not even a politician.
SaintRock
Well there is not one lick of sense to praise Trump who lost both houses and the Executive branch and GOP thinks he is a ‘winner’? Well, good for me, they will never get the vote of my friends and family who are centrist and independent who would vote for a ‘old school GOP’ but not a cult of Trump follower or the false prophet Trump. I consider myself independent and have voted all the way from Angela Davis to sending money to John McCain 1st run ( not the 2nd with Loony Bird Palin).
Openminded
I can’t understand the GOP right now. IMHO, Graham is correct in his prediction about Trump being the GOP’s winner. The GOP better be hunting for a new face of the party if they ever want to be taken seriously again. I don’t doubt that there are pics and films of the majority of Trump’s boot lickers and ain’t nobody going to try to get them because the GOP is afraid of him and the Democrats would be fools to release them if they had them because Trump’s hold on his followers would be over. In a round about way, Trump is the best thing that ever happened to the Democrat party. The Democrats have a bigger threat from a possible strong Independent candidate than they do from the divided GOP party.

It is without question that Trump or someone very close to him has some major dirt on Graham, and has let him know that. He went back and forth about Trump for years and then ALL OF A SUDDEN, became a die hard loyalist. He now says all the opposite of the things he’d said about Trump before. That means something. And I absolutely hope those things are exposed one day. He deserves it for turning on the American people. Had he just come out of the closet, it wouldn’t have even been a big deal. But as a Republican closet case, naturally everyone is enthusiastically waiting. Myself included.
The real Bruce
Poor thing, always looks so sad or maybe terrified or both. What is it that someone has on him? He’s an absolute mess!
cuteguy
Lady G is the ideal homosexual in the GQP. He’s publicly asexual and he’s a sidekick who’s only good for being a doormat. She’s no different than Aaron schmuck
