Lindsey Graham Is Now Urging Other Republicans to Un-Endorse Trump

On May 23rd, we here at Mediaite ran this headline:

Lindsey Graham Caves, Quietly Tells Fellow Republicans to Get Behind Trump

14 days later, Graham has not only done a complete 180, but he is telling other Republicans to un-endorse Donald Trump.

Yes, just so we’re clear, Graham went from “hell no” on Trump to “eh maybe” on Trump to “okay let’s do this” on Trump to “ABANDON THIS SINKING SHIP WOMEN AND CHILDREN AND DONORS FIRST.”

Graham spoke to The New York Times and made it clear he’s telling Republicans to get out while they still can:

Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, another former primary rival of Mr. Trump’s, urged Republicans who have backed Mr. Trump to rescind their endorsements, citing the remarks about Judge Curiel and Mr. Trump’s expression of doubt on Sunday that a Muslim judge could remain neutral in the same lawsuit, given Mr. Trump’s proposed ban on Muslim noncitizens entering the country.

“This is the most un-American thing from a politician since Joe McCarthy,” Mr. Graham said. “If anybody was looking for an off-ramp, this is probably it,” he added. “There’ll come a time when the love of country will trump hatred of Hillary.”

Is there any reason why a conservative should hold his nose to vote for a RINO when they won’t do the same? Spoiled little brats.

First I hated his freaking guts, then I sort of saw where he was coming from, then I wanted to have his baby and now I’m back to wishing he were dead. I wish someone would just tell me what to think. My brain is tired.

Lindsey is just trying to get attention so that he can help Mrs. Bill in the most effective way he can.

Fortunately, Lindsey is an insignificant twit who tallied 1% in his election bid and didn’t know when to quit.

This is the worm who called Trump recently to say he was now aboard the Trump Train.

He should be abandoned ta the next stop.

Mr. Trump, what’s that cellphone number again?

Go Trump!

Lindsey Graham identifies as an hysterical girl.

The reason people like Linda are so upset is that K Street is seeing their Collective life flash before their eyes

Graham is SC not NC. Since losing Jesse Helms we have enough problems here without that idiot being one.
