Graham: I 'fully believe that if North Korea goes to the Winter Olympics, we do not'

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Monday said if North Korea goes to the Winter Olympics, the U.S. should not attend.

"Allowing Kim Jong Un’s North Korea to participate in #WinterOlympics would give legitimacy to the most illegitimate regime on the planet," Graham tweeted.

"I’m confident South Korea will reject this absurd overture and fully believe that if North Korea goes to the Winter Olympics, we do not."

I’m confident South Korea will reject this absurd overture and fully believe that if North Korea goes to the Winter Olympics, we do not.

P!

[MNDude]

screw the Olympians that trained all their lives. We have to look strong!

[DoughtyOne]

I fully believe that Graham’s opinion is worthless.

[BenLurkin]

How are we supposed to recruit spies from NorKo if our people don’t show up and mingle?

[elpadre]

Keep politics, domestic and foreign, out of the Olympics.

[al baby]

We need to go period

[BenLurkin]

Not going to the Olympics just because those pipsqueaks show up would be a display of impotence.

But maybe that’s what Graham likes.

[Eddie01]

Yeah, Linda’s got this wrong.

We need to support the oppressed we would like nothing more than to see liberated.

[Vermont Lt]

Look strong? My 95 year old mother could kick Un’s ass.

[TheTimeOfMan]

oooo the Olympics. That’ll show em!

What a maroon.

[Mercat]

How silly. We did the Olympics w/Hitler and Stalin.

[HLPhat]

Up yours Lindsay.

The Norks should be free to demonstrate just how big a FAIL communism still is.

[TigerLikesRooster]

I believe his remark is directed to S. Korea as a warning for freelancing with its appeasement agenda.

"...Graham’s opinion is worthless..."

Agreed. Why the media often goes running to Lindsey Graham is beyond me.

[TaMoDee]

Drug test the NOK’s and they will be gone on the 1st day.

"I have been training my whole for this Winter Olympics, and if Lindsey blows it for me, I'll be so upset!"

[Slyfox]

How can anyone from North Korea compete in anything that requires stamina and health?

Not to mention the worms. Oh, the worms.

[ssaftler]

That's right, Linda. You show the Norks what we're made of.

if North Korea goes to the Winter Olympics, we do not."

Not to get too off-topic, and I am not an English major, but this strikes me as a grammatical train wreck.

It reminded me of this Caddyshack gem:

Ty Webb: You've got to win this hole.
Danny Noonan: I kinda thought winning wasn't important
Ty Webb: Me winning isn't. You do.
Danny Noonan: Great grammar.
