I’d Pay For a Ticket To See That
It seems that Lindsey Graham is angry at how Trump has treated the death of John McCain.
Graham also told “CBS This Morning” co-host John Dickerson that while he’s open to working with the president and will do “everything” he can to help the commander-in-chief, Mr. Trump’s past comments about the military hero bother him “greatly.”
“It pisses me off to no end, and I let the president know it,” Graham said.
I would have bought a ticket to that.
I can imagine Graham getting all snitty. It would involved lots of finger shaking, head tossing, tippy toe stomping, back of hand against forehead, and eye rolling sarcasm.
Trump would be all arm crossing, chin disappearing, muttering, not goods, and no telling what biological sounds.
Hey, admit it – you’d watch.
Miss Lindsey is one of the Senate’s best wits but Drumpf doesn’t get word play or sarcasm. He’s a literal guy with a lite vacabulary. Not a fair fight for watchers.
1What happened to him…..he has been too cozy/supporting of the dump….how come?
2Sure, I’d watch. It would be a hoot. The thing is, though, that it wouldn’t make any difference. Lindsey Graham is, at bottom, a Trump loyalist. He’ll blow off some steam, then go right back to voting for whatever Trump wants–including replacing Jeff Sessions with someone who will end the Mueller investigation.
3Graham hope to tone him down a bit when he can same reason Mattis et al stay around.
4Oh yeah.
5I’d watch.
A guilt free train wreck, with toy trains.
Don’t think I would watch. Haven’t a damn thing to wear for such an occasion, inauspicious or whatever.
6I’d only watch if I could egg him on in person!
7Charles, real eggs? Sounds good to me.
8@Old Quaker: Unfortunately, it hasn’t worked. If this were a staring contest between Trump and Graham, Graham blinked.
9Nah, I wouldn’t watch. It would be like a rackety little baboon getting all up in the grille of a silverback gorilla who couldn’t be bothered to be more than half awake but who finally reached a big arm out and went SQUISH. Not that I give Donnie anything like half the respect a silverback deserves, but we all know that Graham is going to fall into lockstep when it comes to any vote. Even if he doesn’t, it won’t matter because there aren’t one or two more to make the difference.
10“Standing up,” if any of the Congress varmints are listening, means actual hearings on ALL of Dotard45’s violations before the two ethics committees and wherever else appropriate. That long list compiled by snacilbupeR of which Donnie is so afraid is long because you cowards failed to do your job as items arose. So yeah, now it’s a laundry list.
And, Lindsey, that is NOT how you stand up for a friend. Now back to your fainting couch and a yellow belly rub.
11You left off Pearl clutching…LOL
12My theory is it did not even happen. He and tRump struck a deal – Graham tells this phony story and in return, he starts paving the way for Republicans to be ok with Sessions being fired. In this way, Graham gets to walk that fine line with being a tRump toady, while appearing not to dishonor McCain’s memory.
13Graham isn’t worthy to call himself a friend of John McCain.
14Now that McCain is gone, Graham can pretend to stand up to Dump, all the while bowing to the Felon-In-Chief.
Yes, Mr. President (Church Lady) may I have another?
“I can imagine Graham getting all snitty. It would involved lots of finger shaking, head tossing, tippy toe stomping, back of hand against forehead, and eye rolling sarcasm.”And I can imagine Graham doing this in front of a mirror at home and kissing Trump’s ring/and or butt once he got to the White House.
15Robin Frazier, you beat me to it. Get the smelling salts!
16Lindsay might require a fainting couch and a mint julep, I do declare!
17I’m surprised that Lindsay would get pissy about anything with his new BFF. Some political prognosticators have floated the idea that Lindsay is auditioning to replace Jeff Sessions as AG. But, if Trump doesn’t like Sessions’ southern accent and elfin appearance, I can’t imagine he’ll go for Lindsay “Lightfoot” Graham’s drawl and simp-y mannerisms.
18Just now watching MSNBC announcing that there were two “comrades” at the Trump inauguration. They paid $50 grand each to make contact with Trump. One guy was Ukranian and the other from Moscow. Rudy-Tooty swears that this pair did not have access to Trump at the inauguration. Big deal. Those two did not go home at any time after the inauguration without a one to one with Trump. And the guy who is the “expert” on the famous dossier has told DOJ that the Russians have stated they had Trump over a barrel. And they still do. I personally believe that in the private one to one between Trump and Putin in Helsinki, the world was divided up between the two of them with Putin getting the lion’s share and definitely “impressing” upon Trump that he had better be a good boy or else . . .
19Wow. I just read Dana Milbank’s column in Wash Post today about Miss Lindsey Graham going TOTALLY over to Trumpville on Fox and Friends. I only have over the air TV, never have seen any Fox TV. Mea culpa for anything moderate or nice I’ve said about Miss Lindsey.
20Trust me,Old Quaker you did not miss a thing.
Lindsey Graham is trying to get in the Trum in Hall of Fame by telling a different lie every day.
Lindsey is as much a laughing stock as Trump when it comes to lying. And to think Lindsey and Joe Lieberman will speak today. Ugh!
21Ms. Lindsey has to defend the dumpster fire because the Russians hacked his email and they know where all his ruby slippers are buried. I’d bet my last gay dollar he hitched his wagon to Russia and #45 to keep his many secrets from blowing up his well-insulated closet. His mama should be so proud….
