Graham rips Trump's 'nonsensical' foreign policy speech
http://www.politico.com/ ^ | Brianna Gurciullo

Posted on 04/27/2016 8:17:17 PM PDT by ObamahatesPACoal

Sen. Lindsey Graham tore into Donald Trump’s speech on foreign policy, calling it “unnerving,” “pathetic” and “scary.”

The South Carolina Republican former presidential candidate told WABC Radio on Wednesday that the speech was “nonsensical” and showed that Trump “has no understanding of the world and the role we play.”

“This speech was unnerving. It was pathetic in its content, and it was scary in terms of its construct. If you had any doubt that Donald Trump is not fit to be commander in chief, this speech should’ve removed it,” Graham said. “It took every problem and fear I have with Donald Trump and put in on steroids.”

He added: “It was like a guy from New York reading a speech that somebody wrote for him that he edited that makes no sense.” And: “It was not a conservative speech. This was a blend of random thoughts built around Rand Paul’s view of the world.”

Is it just me, or does Lindsey look more and more like the Cowardly Lion?

“Bacha bazi” Graham should spend his time criticizing the Clinton-Obama foreign policy. He will not do it because this is the policy he endorses. It has led to chaos in the Middle East.

Sure he hates Trump’s speech. He’s a globalist and they don’t want a more self interested America they want American soldiers dying for every internationalist cause they come up with.

Voters ripped Graham for being "nonsensical" in the Republican primary.

Standing on the outside looking in must be tough for Linda.

...I’m SICK OF ATTORNEYS in GOVERNMENT.

The original 13th Amendment to our Constitution has been illegally removed from publication. During the confusion of the War of 1812,when our capital records building was burned, and the Civil War, the bankers and lawyers removed the 13th Amendment, replacing it with the Slave Amendment, which should be the 14th.

The missing 13th Amendment reads:

"If any citizen of the United States shall accept, claim, receive, or retain, any title of nobility or honor, or shall, without the consent of Congress, accept and retain any present, pension, office or emolument of any kind whatever, from any emperor, king, prince, or foreign power, such person shall cease to be a citizen of the United States, and shall be incapable of holding any office of trust or profit under them, or either of them."

This includes members of the BAR!

Apparently, some have theorized that.

If so, that shows more very bad and dangerous life choices by both of these losers in life.

Should we make it this far, I think the next round of mid-terms will see the likes of Linda and Teddy being moved out of Senate. Useless eaters and takers that belong to the biggest group of welfare frauds ever to suck on our system of government! Put that in your pipe and smoke on it Linda!

Coming from Lindsey, somebody who never saw a bomb he didn't want to drop, or an American he didn't want to send to his death. For nothing.

One of the best parts of Trump's speech was not reaching for warfare as a first response. He wants to build our military capacity as a way to intimidate the enemy and correctly, IMO, says that is the most economical option in the long run. Trump is so clear, accurate and precise, his critics are reduced to sputtering that he is "incoherent." That's because they cannot understand him, befogged as they are with OldThink.
