(Lindsey) Graham: Next president likely to be a 'she'
Politico ^ | June 20, 2016 | Nick Gass

Posted on 06/21/2016 12:46:04 PM PDT by Pinkbell

Whether it's Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton, the next president will need to deal with setting aside defense cuts as part of sequestration, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said Monday, though he gave an indication as to which gender he expects the 45th commander in chief to be.

“The next president, whoever he or she — most likely she — is going to be, needs to get these defense cuts set aside," Graham remarked during a discussion at the Center for a New American Security's conference.

Graham also took a shot at Trump, his former presidential primary rival, in discussing the spectrum of Republican viewpoints on defense.

"The bottom line: I think there’s a fight within the Republican Party for who we are on foreign policy, from the Rand Paul view to the Lindsey Graham, John McCain view," Graham said. "And Trump’s somewhere out there, somewhere saying something, I don’t know where he’s at. So, so, I think there’s a more traditional view of foreign policy emerging on the Republican side. It’s one of the reasons I wanted to run for president."

Yeah, endless foreign entanglements, nation building and throwing our youth into a meat grinder.

Its the Neocon way.

Traditional. As in spending billions, getting U.S. Troops killed, and having nothing to show for it.

He's been out here in Utah with ‘rat’ Romney and others, they had this big meeting at his home in Park City, Utah and from what I heard, they have all these plans to knock Trump out of the convention...

I have to wonder a lot about people's mentality...it seems to be getting worse as we move along...the kids don't seem as smart as they used to be, the jobs are being worked by the dad instead of high schooled or people going to college, is that some of the reason why dads are working 2-4 jobs a day so the ‘snowflakes’ can hide and cry if you look at them wrong?

What happened to the time when if you didn't work, you were a ‘nothing’? If you didn't graduate college and get a job, you were a ‘nothing’? Seems to me like most of the people now days are ‘nothing’...like Graham, McCain, Romney, Ryan, and the rest ....

Trump will carry all fifty states. That scares people like Graham. It should, he’s been quite dubious.

It should surprise no one to find neocons like Lindsey Graham being front-line Clinton supporters. She is perfectly aligned with them ethically and ideologically.

The way this appears on Front page news, it makes it look like Franklin Graham is concern trolling trump’s polls, not Linda Graham.

“If he is so unpopular, why was he reelected this election instead of his opponent?”

Because democrats by the tens of thousands register as Republicans and vote for Graham. It’s why the rat opponent running against Graham rarely gets more than 38% of the vote.
