Well, this is kinda awkward.
Hours after Donald Trump issued a sewage dump of yuletide pardons for several convicted criminals from within his inner circle, including former campaign chairman Paul Manafort, longtime loyalist Roger Stone, and Jared Kushner’s dad, an old clip of Lindsey Graham saying “it would not play out well” if Trump pardoned his buddies has resurfaced online.
In March 2019, the antigay Senator from South Carolina/presidential lapdog appeared on PBS News Hour, where he told reporters, “If President Trump pardoned anybody in his orbit, it would not play well.”
Now that Trump’s gone and done exactly what the Senator warned against, however, Graham hasn’t made a peep.
How about we take this to the next level?

But this isn’t the first time an old clip of Graham, who serves as chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, has come back to make him look like a total jackass.
One day after Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s death, he said he would support “any effort to move forward regarding the recent vacancy created by the passing of Justice Ginsburg.”
In light of these two events, I will support President @realDonaldTrump in any effort to move forward regarding the recent vacancy created by the passing of Justice Ginsburg.

Shortly after that, footage from 2016 of Graham saying that, if a Supreme Court vacancy opened up in the months before a presidential election, he wouldn’t hold a confirmation hearing resurfaced.
Remarked Graham, “If there’s a Republican president in 2016 and a vacancy occurs in the last year of the first term, you can say Lindsey Graham said, ‘Let’s let the next president, whoever it might be, make that nomination.'”
“And you could use my words against me and you’d be absolutely right.”

As anyone in possession of a working brain knows, the defining characteristic of all Repugnicants is limitless, shameless, and always self-serving hypocrisy.

he’s probably at home riding a dildo exclaiming, goodness, did I really say that about my best friend?

Every time Trump pardons someone it reminds me of the cartoon from the 1980’s Justice League were when the villlian would escape whatever prinson Superman, Wonder Women, Batman would place them in they would startt to release all their villain friends from thier prisons. Our government works just like a cartoon.

It’s funny that they all look like the villain’s too.

Senator Weathervane, I mean Aunt Bea, I mean Lindsey Graham, goes whichever way the right-wing wind blows these days. Whatever kompromat Don the Con and Putin seemingly have on her, it must be terrifying because Lindsey still will not dare stand up to either one of them, even after having handily won reelection. If there were any time even to issue even a weak pushback, like Ben Sasse and Susan Collins have done, or show demonstrable courage, like Mitt Romney, it would be now, as Dumpster the Disastrous Loser is on his way out of the White House.

If anyone on here has access to those rent boys who claim to have been with Lindsey, please spill it so this fake homophobe can be outed properly.

All of DC apparently knows he even has a partner.

It is comical the animus that this site has for Graham. It is actually worse than TDS.

Hypocrisy and Histrionics, thy name is Lindsey Graham [Cracker]. This little shit masquerading as a Senator is the master of double-speak. From his comments above to the Kavanaugh hearing to the Barrett appointment he has worked overtime to influence a vote, change the rules at the last moment, and do whatever he can to please the Golem in the White House. Kiss Ass meets Lard Ass. When the political history of the 45th Presidency is written, Trump, Graham, and McConnell will be the Three Stooges stars of this mini Dark-Age. Power, power, power, who has the power? An old game played again and again by these three miscreants leading to the death of hundreds of thousands of Americans and nearly 20 million so far infected. Make America Mince Meat should be their mantra. A worm, a turtle, and a Golem – an unholy trio of doom – have pushed us all to the brink and they couldn’t care less.

Pansy Graham is a lying fag-ot as-hole! He is an embarrassment to gays everywhere. He deserves nothing less than a slow and painful death from either Covid or whatever else might come his way.

Miss Lindsey Hypocrite Graham really deserves some enterprising reporter or ex-whatever to out her ugly ass. That would, one hopes, destroy her self-image and potentially her “reputation.”

Before they are able to drag the Orange Turd Bucket screaming and throwing tantrums out of the White House they will first need the jaws-of-life to pry Miss Lindsey’s face out of his fat, pimply ass. And I want film footage.

Miss Lindsey, clutch those pearls and moisturize those ladybugs! You are so tired, Miss Thing.

Quit referring to Ms Linda Graham as anti-gay. This is the biggest QUEEN to ever run the streets. Just ask any of her paid male escorts.
Bricklayer
I am astonished, that the people and even worse that the CIA do not see that the white house/senate and USA is ruled by Poetin the last 4 years. Trump and his college’s are a fived colonne of Russian agents destroying USA. How blind can you be?
Bricklayer
Even worse the whole government is now invaded and installed with any possible device to spy the next coming years.

Linda Graham Cracker is afraid Donnie will lash out at him! His picture looks like he is ill, does he have the virus?
cuteguy
Is anyone really surprised at this point? It’s like Lindsay is Trumps jailhouse b1tch. Of course Ms Graham will stay quiet, like a good lap dog. Wonder what will happen to her on Jan 20?
