There is a difference between obstructing a Democrat President and not only going along with what Trump wants to do but becoming his attack dog. Lindsey Graham ripped Trump apart during the campaign, and even after the election he commented on Trump's lack of intelligence and experience, and he made fun of Trump for saying he was a "genius".

Fortunately Graham HAS had a different stance so far with regard to Saudi Arabia's killing of Jamal Khashoggi, but we will see if he holds firm.

Even if you describe Graham as once having an "occasional moment of sanity", he doesn't even seem to have that anymore. It's a shame.

That’s bull, Graham was never at risk of losing his position and has enjoyed plenty of popularity in SC. He wasn’t going anywhere. In fact, he set up pretty well as an anti-trump GOPer. Not that it was an excellent strategy nationally but he would have been just fine and may have carved out a future for himself in the post-trump era.

Have a nice day.

if you want to go full stupid conspiracy, sounds to me that the right wing populist morans organized and funded the caravan, not the normal people.

I mean the repubs are benefitting from the raw terror of brown folks held by old white people - the caravan is going to help the Trumpists, not the Dems.

Absolutely correct. And conveniently just two weeks before midterms. They should approach the border the day before election day.

you have to remember that

1) these are hyperpolitical, very aggressive, highly competitive guys

2) They depend on winning elections to have a job.

When you put those together, you understand that if lindsey graham wants to keep his job, he has to be with trump. There is no conservative movement anymore for him to rely on. He has to be a trumper, or he gets primaried from the right and loses.

he isn't trying to turn the nation into an authoritarian state - he is riding the red wave. When trump is gone he will find another red wave to ride. That is how he stays employed.

Don't mess with a man's livelihood, as they say.

“When a candidate for public office faces the voters he does not face men of sense; he faces a mob of men whose chief distinguishing mark is the fact that they are quite incapable of weighing ideas, or even of comprehending any save the most elemental — men whose whole thinking is done in terms of emotion, and whose dominant emotion is dread of what they cannot understand. So confronted, the candidate must either bark with the pack or be lost... All the odds are on the man who is, intrinsically, the most devious and mediocre — the man who can most adeptly disperse the notion that his mind is a virtual vacuum. The Presidency tends, year by year, to go to such men. As democracy is perfected, the office represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. We move toward a lofty ideal. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.”

― H.L. Mencken

so you tell me why he flipped to being trump's manservant. Why? Does he want a job in the cabinet? sick of politics? blackmail?

isn't it simpler just to assume he thinks trumpism will keep him in his seat?

Wow you are so dumb. Compared to people like the Waltons, Kochs, Adelson, Buffet or Bezos, Soros really doesn't have that much money. Yet, conservatives believe that he is practically omnipresent, easily the most influential man in the world. Anyone who does anything they don't like is invariably accused of being paid by him. Striking teachers are paid by SOROS. The millions of people who attended the Women's Marches were paid by SOROS. People protesting the elimination of the ACA are all paid for by SOROS. ISIS is funded by SOROS. People who accused Kavanagh of sexual assault were paid by SOROS. The entire DNC is owned by SOROS. Poor migrants are paid by SOROS.

That's one scary Jew, huh?

Speaking of the caravan, which includes many women and children fleeing violence and poverty that was largely created by terrible foreign/drug policies championed by Reagan Republicans, let's take a look at how people like Mr. IT'S AN INVASION!!! are responding over at Breitbart.

This was the *front page* story on Breitbart today:

Two people in Honduras burned an American flag outside the embassy to show support for the migrants in light of Trump's hate speech, so Breitbart attempts to conflate this with the migrants themselves to imply that they all hate america. The comments section is rife with people saying that the migrants should be shot or bombed before they reach the border. (In fact, this approach appears to be the overwhelming preference.) They are referred to as "enemy troops", "invaders", and "locusts" in the comments section. If they are not met with sufficient force, the good people of Breitbart say that they'll just have to start a civil war over it and start killing liberals.

Again, this is all over a couple thousand really poor people, including plenty of women and children, fleeing violence and poverty. If you don't think they should all be let in, that's one thing. But many conservatives are expressing genuine hatred towards them and anyone who expresses a modicum of sympathy for them. They really are just deplorable people. The stupid hate is the glue that binds them all together.

Graham, like Trump is well aware that 1) people are pretty fvcking stupid and gullible, and 2) the public’s memory of things last a millisecond. However, what people like Graham didn’t have before Trump was this new wide open range of possibilities for personal power and gain. The con game is no longer subtle on the right, it’s blatant and more importantly accepted.

So why is he up Trump’s anus? The answer is he isn’t. If you have been following closely, after Porter’s departure Graham started having regular calls with Trump, much like Hannity. Trump thinks these guys are admiring him, and their words surely suggest that, but they are actually shaping his views and thus effecting change they want through him. Remember, trump is a certified moron, Graham is not. He’s going to do what every other smart GOPer looking more power and money have been doing, he’s keeping the relationship at arm’s length. As long as Trump views him favorably, Graham stands to gain a lot more than he has to lose. Ultimately, Graham is assetrting power over the GOP, and over specifically over McConnell. Look at what he did during the Kav hearing, he’s consolidating influence and power in the party. He subtly controls Trump and he also controls the GOP. He keeps his distance so that when the hammer falls he steps out of the way. So who do you think is the actual decision maker? Graham is quite possibly Trump’s Cheney.

The only other jobs he would take at this point are POTUS, Trump’s VP in 2020 if Pence fell out of favor (which is very unlikely), or possibly speaker. I think he’s buying time for another presidential run, if not he’s happy right now influencing policy and helping take over the party.

So basically Idiocracy came true

WSJ: The Real Reason They Hate Trump

“True, Mr. Trump is the unconstrained average citizen. Obviously you can hate some of his major characteristics—the infantile lack of self-control in his Twitter babble, his hitting back like a spiteful child bully—without hating the average American, who has no such tendencies. (Mr. Trump is improving in these two categories.) You might dislike the whole package. I wouldn’t choose him as a friend, nor would he choose me. But what I see on the left is often plain, unconditional hatred of which the hater—God forgive him—is proud. It’s discouraging, even disgusting. And it does mean, I believe, that the Trump-hater truly does hate the average American—male or female, black or white. Often he hates America, too.”

amazing that the writer of that piece thinks the average american is trumplike. Such insane disrespect for a people who are almost all kind, honest and true. Shocking right wing disregard for regular people.

are we agreeing? I'm saying Graham is using trump and trumpism to get elected and keep/gather the power that comes with high seniority in the senate. I think you are saying the same thing, just a little differently.

I was disagreeing with someone who claimed graham was getting ready to assume dictatorial power for the republican party, over a non-democratic USA. Using trumpism as the ramp. Was that you? I'm not sure.

He's hardly my boy. So far he has bested Trump overall, but that has nothing to do with future events. I once thought Trump was a successful businessman. I can and will change my mind about someone based on new evidence. I have already said Avenatti dropped the ball with Kavanaugh...we shall see how he does going forward, but however it turns out, I have no allegiance to him.

Not sure I've read such a piece of crap in my life. Calling someone a "hater" is done to minimize the dislike we have for him and the very valid reasons for it. Some people actually HATE him. I don't see things like that...he is just a criminal who is bad for America and needs to be removed from office as soon as legally possible.

Also, the "average American" voted for Hillary Clinton as she did win the popular vote by 3 million+ votes. Then to say that someone who hates Donald Trump hates America too is just bogus beyond belief. No...we don't like criminal behavior and serial lying and bullying and name calling and snuggling up to the Dictators of the world from our President. We don't like his racism and misogyny. We don't like his fake Christianity and the nepotism. We also don't like him personally as he is acerbic, sophomoric, and a cheating womanizer.

And with that I apologize to sophomores everywhere.

She did not win 3+ million more votes. Typical Flagpole liar.

She "had" 2.8+ million more popular votes, mainly from the liberal lying state of California where she had 4.2+ million more votes, many by illegals.

The average voter, barely over 2% above average of the entire number of people who voted, chose to unwisely vote for a known corrupt liar...that includes you.

Before the election, you didn't bring up the Electoral College process, not once. You loved it and were fine with it, as long as Hillary hit 270 or more, you were good.

Hillary lost state after state, probably at least 6 that you thought she'd win, including Ohio. You never looked at the popular vote then because it was so close you had nothing to complain about. Then California kicked in and you had to look for an excuse to complain about the system.

Winning anything by 2+% when an entire nation is involved is called a sneeze in statistics. Had Trump won by the same amount, you be saying he barely won the popular vote. Translation: You'll bend anything you can to make your side look victorious.

Then you pulled the liberal flip job. But wait, she won more popular votes and got 55 electoral votes from the most liberal state in the nation. She has to be the President!

Thank you Ohio. Trump received 454,983 votes than Hillary Clinton. I'll let you do the math on the percentage since it's your state;)

Obama won Ohio in 2012 by only 3 percent. He only had 166, 272 more votes than Romney.

The AVERAGE American did not vote for Hillary Clinton, they voted for Donald Trump. But many more than the average citizen DID vote for Hillary Clinton>>>but only in the state of California.

The following video and the true captions posted by the uploader define you and your side. If it were a Republican in the car, you'd be talking about it all day. But...now come the excuses.

You're so biased that you make posting facts and beating you easy, really easy. Thanks!
