MSNBC Anchor Suggests Trump Is Blackmailing Graham Over ‘Extreme’ Secret
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 01/15/2019 | Paul Crookston

Before Don got elected, Lindsey Graham called Donald Trump a racist, xenophobic bigot. Those are Lindsey Graham's words," Jolly said. "I doubt Lindsey Graham could tell you Donald Trump has had a change of heart in the last 24 months, I bet the change of heart has been with Lindsey Graham, not the president."

"Or it could be that Donald Trump or somebody knows something pretty extreme about Lindsey Graham," Ruhle replied. "We’re gonna have to leave it there."

Jon Cooper, chairman of the Democratic Coalition super PAC, explicitly accused Graham on Saturday of letting himself be blackmailed for "some pretty serious kink."

Cooper went on to argue there’s a public interest in outing Grahams' sexual secrets because national security is at stake, on account of "the Russians" who could be blackmailing him.

Graham was a follower and he saw McCain as a leader.

Blackmail may get somebody to vote your way, but it can't make anybody worship you.

Offhand, I'd say that the people who are thought most liable to blackmail, probably aren't being blackmailed.

Blackmail works best with people one would never suspect of doing anything wrong or suspicious or threatening to their reputation.

Kind of like this in "The Godfather 2" regarding the casino licenses?

Exactly. Of course, we don’t know that this insinuation is true. But something truly weird with Graham is going on—half on the Trump train, half a foe.

It sounds like this article comes from the other side, hoping to intimidate Graham to get back with their program of blackmail, as opposed to responding to the Trump side blackmail.

I knew a man through work and socially that came off a good deal like LG. Very smart, successful, fun. We all thought he was gay. He ended up marrying a woman when he was nearly 60....very lovely widow of one of his old friends. Some guys are attracted to men, but don’t act out on their urges because of religious beliefs. This couple is still together, years later and very happy. Hope the same for LG....

What a pile of BS.I see a version of this story everyday. I guess they think that if they say it enough we will ALL start to believe it.

Graham said on Hannity last night that a coalition of Dems and Reps in the Senate could reach a deal if they get something in return. Hannity asked if that would include an amnesty. Graham said no, but there could be some “bridge work permits.” Graham did not say who those would be for. DACA recipients already have work permits. He could be talking about the 12 to 22 million illegal aliens already here.

This sounds like the amnesty that passed in 2013 in the Senate and the Kennedy-McCain proposal in 2007. Trump should not allow Graham to be the interlocutor on any deal involving immigration. Graham is a snake. He is still pushing the McCain agenda,whether it is immigration or our presence in Syria.

Shouldn’t the LGBT peeps be running this guy out of town on a rail for calling gayness “serious kink”?

You know, I can’t stop laughing from that. You have someone from the DNC claiming the only way Lindsay could be for the Wall is because Trump must have knowledge of “some pretty serious kink” on Lindsay, rather than being for the Wall on principle.

That is just dang funny!

Blackmail is the Media-Democrat M.O. seems like this reporter is making a threat to out Sen. Graham while blaming the leak on Trump.
