His fight for Brett Kavanaugh completed his transformation into Donald Trumps slobbering manservant.
The battle over Brett Kavanaughs nomination to the Supreme Court was an especially ugly episode of a reality-show presidency that degrades almost everyone swept up in it, and many characters stagger away from it looking worse than ever.
Thats Senator Lindsey Graham you see at the head of the pack. Thats Graham you hear talking and talking and talking some more, in committee rooms and on stages and before the television cameras that he rushes to the way a toddler chases soap bubbles. His words are whichever ones guarantee a major role and a powerful patron, which means that these days he sounds like a more articulate echo of his golfing buddy: Donald Trump.
That wouldnt, by itself, be cause to dwell on him. Washington is lousy with lackeys, and not even the maddest of kings thins their ranks.
But Graham is special. He really is. I cant think of another Republican whose journey from anti-Trump outrage to pro-Trump obsequiousness was quite so illogical or half as sad, and his conduct during the war over Kavanaugh completed it. For the president he fought overtime, he fought nasty and he fought without nuance.

I hope you are right.
I was really referring to the doofus-clown that you are going to see on TV every other night for years to come. The “Press” knows an idiotic, preening parakeet when they see one, and just like they went to McCain all those years for pithy pearls of wisdom, they’re going to go to Romney.
As obviously stupid as McCain was, Romney may actually be more.
Frank Bruni’s next cookbook will be entitled “The Art of Knob-Gobbling with the Bitchy & Fatuous’.
“Thats Senator Lindsey Graham you see at the head of the pack. Thats Graham you hear talking and talking and talking some more, in committee rooms and on stages and before the television cameras that he rushes to the way a toddler chases soap bubbles.”
Frank Bruni sounds like a bullying make-fun. These traits are very unseemly and ill mannered in a grown man.
This is one butt hurt shemale. I doubt if he sleeps much at night.
Look at another of his crazy headlines a few weeks back.
I agree with you. Graham could not have made me more proud during this entire Kavanaugh confirmation but I’m still skeptical of Lindsey. Time and legislative votes will tell.
They pushed him in that direction, It is the press who transformed him.
That and John McCain cant blackmail him into submission any more.
McCain died you idiot.
"sad" yeah. The sadness you and your clown car buddies feel because Lindsey walked away from your illogical unreasoned minds.
There has been, at least for now, a transformation for Graham since McCain died. I have to admit that Graham’s support for Kavanaugh was tremendous compared to the cowering that most republicans engaged in.
That’s the face of someone who, at least for the moment, is comfortable with himself.
Funny how no longer being the gopher to an evil megalomaniacal bastard can do that to a guy.
A thoroughly asinine article.
Graham has stood in the breach and fired upon the enemy.
There is no greater bravery than this, that a man scorned and mocked stands firm and tall with righteous fervor to protect and support the very souls who have been his greatest detractors.
“...Washington is lousy with lackeys...”
At least that flaming gay writer got this right...Mostly democrats....
Something the faggot loser Bruni knows all about. Is this HIS fantasy?
It is beyond encouraging to see that Trump has taught Republicans its okay to fight back...
Trump nominated a Bushie. Stuck by K during his darkest hours and pushed him over the finish line.
He healed the party’s fracture with that move and has won over the never Trump crowd.
The mid term momentum is a thing of beauty.....
OMG!!! That picture of the author just flat out busted my Gaydar. It just started smoking, sparking and sizzling, then there was a loud bang and it just exploded.
