Lindsey Graham:Statement on Donald Trump’s Offensive Comments About Megyn Kelly(Endorses Dem Party)
I6 Graham for President ^ | August 8, 2015 | Lindsey Graham

Posted on 08/08/2015 1:42:11 PM PDT by Red Steel

Alexandria, VA – Today, Senator Lindsey Graham released the following statement on the offensive comments about Megyn Kelly:

“Due to Donald Trump’s unrelenting and offensive attack on Megyn Kelly and others, we are at a crossroads with Mr. Trump. I applaud Erick Erickson for doing the right thing when he disinvited Donald Trump from a gathering of Republican activists. As a party, we are better to risk losing without Donald Trump than trying to win with him. Enough already with Mr. Trump.

“These statements are not worthy of the office he is seeking nor consistent with the leadership we should expect from a Commander-in-Chief in these dangerous times.”

Little Linda should have raised his hand in the air during Thursday’s debates.

I'll Bet " if Linda is still in the race by South Carolina primary

He won't finish in the top 5

Tim Scott is so much better than Linda as a South Carolina Senator

“I hate that I have to say it but I stand with Donald Trump. My trust inthe phoney Fox News Network is over. They called Cruz a clown three weeks ago.”

And yet Cruz called Megyn Kelly “a terrific journalist.”

Well there are just certain things you can’t say to a ‘lady’ or a ‘gay’. Freedom of speech goes just so far. You’re screwed.

Or called Sarah Palin a “ pig” ( wink wink)

And of course Hillary’s husband is well known for his respectful treatment of women before and while he was POTUS

Does Linda plan to show the video of him shaking hands with Qadaffi so we can see what a tough CinC he would be?

I like Trump, and his presence in this race might be what saves this country, and I wouldn't mind him as president, though I'd prefer Cruz.

I can see a point of view that would say he strategically took it too far with Megan. Not because she didn't have it coming, but sometimes you wince when Trump repeats himself 50 times. Loser, loser, lightweight, loser, stupid, stupid, loser." He becomes unattractive, unadmirable and begins to appear petty. He may well know something I don't know. That's just my reaction at times.

BUT BUT BUT this statement by Linda “These statements are not worthy of the office he is seeking nor consistent with the leadership we should expect from a Commander-in-Chief in these dangerous times.”

This is so bad. It translates to "In these times when the Islamocrazies have stated over and over that they WILL kill us, we must be polite and maybe then they won't." This quote more than any other I've heard characterizes why this country is, as Trump has said, losing to everyone. I can't stand this pussy attitude. Americans are not cowards, but if a country or nation is its leadership, then America the country is, at present, a coward. Incapable of standing for her OWN principles.

But I hope Trump knows what he is doing. If you condensed his interiew with Lemon on CNN to 5 minutes instead of 20, he was dead on. But 15 minutes of it sounded not like the tough 5 minutes, but bloviating. This will not get him elected, I suspect. We need what he is standing for, and he is probably the only one who can actually deliver it (Cruz would if he could - I'm not sure he can, right now - because he is reasonable, the country needs an unreasonable dick in the Team America 'We are Dicks' Speech sense - or at least someone who has this dick as part of his personality and can express it when necessary through himself or his surrogates.) (Can Cruz?).

Sometimes Trump sounds like a raving idiot instead of just a good strong dick. But ISIS are assholes ... and Lindsey Graham is a pussy ...

Lindsey learned everything he knows about the Navy from attending a Village People concert.

I do not like Trump not even a little bit, but he is many magnitudes superior to Graham.

Maybe Graham missed the comments by Obama calling Republicans who are against his Iran deal “Iran Hardliners” Hey Lindsey, didn’t that offend you..isn’t that kind of comment not “Presidential” didnt stop Obama the schmuck from being elected twice
