“Race baiting”, not “race betting” (to CBS).

Trump is building bridges for sure. Glad to see Graham coming around.

Here is something else he said today:

MAJOR GARRETT: What I hear you saying Senator is 2018 is the year of preemptive strikes?

SENATOR LINDSEY GRAHAM: 2018 is going to the year to deny North Korea the capability to hit the homeland. Sanctions will never work completely without the threat of credible military force. How do you change a man's behavior who's willing to kill his own family, torture his own people to stay in power? He's living large and he could care less us about his people. The only way he will change his behavior if he beliefs Donald Trump would use military force to destroy his regime and the Iranians are watching how Trump deals with North Korea. You'll ask me in a minute how my relationship has evolved with the President. It's evolved because he is President of the United States, he beat me like a drum and I want to help him where I can because there's a lot on this man's plate. And we should all want to help him.

Every Senator but Tom Cotton voted for the Corker bill.

IIRC every Senator excepting Senator Cotton voted for the Corker rule. They were all for it.

The president will appear favorable to the Iranian people while leaving the actual hands on support to the Arabs and israel who have boots on the ground so to speak.

The red carpet treatment and the Presidential speech in Riyadh were advance notice to Iran the there is a new game being played.

Graham still needs to be replaced in 2020.
He and Alexander.
They both voted for Rubio’s amnesty and have said they will do it again.

If I am God willing still alive in 2020 Not only will I vote for President Trump in the Tennessee Primary and general election. I will also vote against Lamar Alexander in the Tennessee primary and hopefully there will be a candidate that I can vote for in the August primary that is different than the super Tuesday primary. One thing you can be sure. I will not vote for a demonrat and I will not waste my time with some third party candidate that has no chance what soever to get elected.

It might encourage him more if people here stopped referring to him as “Linda.” I don’t know whether he’s gay or not, but even so, giving him a childish nickname because you don’t agree with him doesn’t undermine his position - it undermines yours.

That said, he has actually been pretty supportive of Trump for a few months now. And Graham is popular with his constituency, for one reason or another (possibly because some of the other candidates have been hideous drug sniffing rich guys from the “old families”).

Encourage the good and let the other stuff go. It’s water under the bridge, and if he’s coming out and supporting Trump now, that’s all that matters.

Stategically, Graham has to trim his sails now that his bestest girlfried, John McCain, is on his way out.
