Sen. Lindsey Graham should walk into the Senate chamber today and resign his seat. He would be doing America a great favor.
According to CNN, Sen. Graham said at the Washington Press Club Foundation dinner last night, "If you kill Ted Cruz on the floor of the Senate, and the trial is at the Senate, no one will convict you." Graham's joke crossed the line.
Joking about the murder of a presidential candidate is reckless and wrong. It makes it acceptable for other Republican politicians to say hateful things about a member of their own party. It gives Democrats political fodder. It also might inspire violence against Sen. Cruz. Graham crossed the line of acceptable behavior by a politician.
Graham's joke was despicable and he needs to resign his seat and go away.

Does he get his baby’s bottle from his Chamber of Commerce friends?
Lindsey Graham is a feckless, duplicitous, treacherous, double dealing, backstabbing corksucker.
Parasitic filth like Grahamnesty are where they are due to stupid, complacent voters. They keep putting them back in the Congress. Pure ignorance.
Ms. Lindsay is full of her nasty self.
Yeah, I had to look that up too. Wow.
That makes two of us.
Sorry, some supposed jokes deserve the flames of backlash so bad that the “joker” gets blisters.
What a vicious remark. This also tells me that he thinks he is a ruler, not a public servant.
I agree, it is time for him to resign. This kind of reckless talk could trigger a mad man’s response.
He should resign but Mark Levin is NOT the person to demand it
Everyone in the senate over 2 terms should resign.
Arggg, Libs are OK to denigrate.
Sleepeeeee
Yes, I agree that Graham has “let ‘er rip” and it should be his undoing. Talking about murdering a fellow Senator .. that’s about as low and you can go.
I was wondering if Graham was planning to retire at the end of this year ..?? Anybody know? I don’t pay much attention to what he says, so he may have talked about it and I just never heard. If Graham was planning to retire; I think he should just do it early.
...because he cross dresses
Very poor taste. Way over the top.
Should he resign? Let his fellow Senators decide.
Lots of reasons.
But he won’t, because he’s a hit in the locker room,
I’m sure there’s a huge media firestorm over this
I agree that Graham crossed the line.
He has to be censured, or simply jettisoned.
