Lindsay Graham has emerged from Trump's butt only to promptly return
Nov 23, 2019 22:39:57 #
House Republicans spent the week rhetorically hiding from a mountain of evidence that President Trump sought to extort Ukraine into helping him in the 2020 e******n. Over in the Senate, Lindsay Graham took a slightly different tact: physically hiding from an Iraq War veteran who had concerns about the commander-in-chief.
On Friday morning, Graham was confronted on Capitol Hill by Jeff Key, who engaged the senator about as respectfully as possible. Graham couldn’t handle it. Here’s the exchange:
KEY: “I see how you’re berated in the press and I honestly believe that you believe in our democracy.”
GRAHAM: “I do.”
KEY: “I’m a Marine, I went to Iraq. I believe as I believe that you do that President Trump is not acting in accordance to his oath, the oath that you took and I did to defend the Constitution.”
GRAHAM: [unintelligible stammering]
KEY: “You took an oath.”
GRAHAM: “Yeah I did, I don’t agree with you, I gotta go.”
Graham then abruptly turned his back on Key and disappeared behind a closed door. “Is that it?” Key said as Graham retreated. “That’s it,” the senator said before closing the door behind him.
Like his Republican colleagues, Graham has been unable to address the substance of the impeachment inquiry, instead opting to bash the process and indulge conspiracy theories about Deep State efforts to take down the president.
Sadly, his deflection efforts aren’t limited to cable TV hits. On Thursday, Graham, who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee, launched a probe into Joe Biden’s relationship with Ukraine. The investigation comes a month after he was pressured to begin one by Trump and his allies. He refrained from doing so at the time, he explained to the Washington Post, because didn’t want to “turn the Senate into a circus.”

Sheesh! Rumi is a volcano of putrid nonsense tonight. Likely, he gets like that after drinking about a quart of bong water.

Of course you would. That's how you deal with criticism; you do not engage and possibly prove or try to refute the many accusations but run away. Why? You can't. DISPROVE WHAT i SAID! Again, you can't so you make a "no longer worthy of response list." Being a coward now is the only way to serve this president in this hour of severely damaging testimony of his corrupt extortion.

Haha, as usual no honest or insightful thought about the subject, just vitriol. Typical. You guys are like inane clones.

It's difficult to refute your opinions/charges/spurious accusations. Provide something factual and I shall repute it for you.

Graham has been, and still is, all over the map on nearly every issue. The one thing he is consistent on, it's all the Democrats fault.

Rather than Graham, it’s much more fun to watch Jim Jordan scream, attack, and bluster to defend the indefensible.

Before I opened this thread I wondered which one of our vulgar progressives had crafted the title. I did not consider you in the mix. I won't be fooled next time.
You think it was wrong for Graham to walk away and not engage in an argument with the joker that ambushed him? What would have been the point? Furthermore, you peckerwoods believe anyone that supports Trump is crazy while progressives support k*****g unborn children, promote homosexuality and that one may simply choose from 70 or more different g****rs anytime they want a change.
