I've been reading theories about Trump's post regarding Lindsay Graham which includes a pic of Graham wearing a Make Iran Great Again hat, and holding up a pic of Trump which includes the text "President of Venezuela".

Many theories but no clear winner.  Several times I've read through anon analysis of the Graham funeral in which the flag on his coffin was not fouled (wrinkled) as was McCains, and that President Trump's comments laud him as a true patriot. This did change my opinion of Graham. The  post I  write about below added another aspect to Graham - I'd read that he was a JAG officer before, but out of context it didn't really register. So the following post painted a more detailed picture of him.

The lastest theory/dig I've read is here: https://x.com/SirCensorLot/status/2089929409457164434,  (followers of that account include Lisa Mei and Tom Renz). The account delves into 'Saving Israel for Last' and intel connections between Iran and Israel. I don't agree with some of the reasoning (e.g., I don't believe Linday Graham is still alive) but found the dig components themselves interesting.

There are user comments posted to it which are antisemitic. Wut is this? I don't know. 8Chan used to get antisemitic psts/cartoons and other trash to reduce anon readership. So I don't recommend the dig for particular theories, suspicions or user comments, but I am posting in case others looking at Israel (last), Iran and Lindsay Graham can make sense out of the (apparently) legitimate scraps of information therein. 

Read at your own risk! :D
