Lindsey wants the Judiciary Committee Chair, I believe he'd do a good job.

"Pure, unadulterated fake news garbage."

Graham and Trump are close allies. They talk frequently, and Graham is laying out the story line before it happens. Trump is not dumb. Graham is probably Trump's closest ally now in the Senate.

Graham only gets Judiciary if Grassley goes to Finance. Since Grassley came from Finance Chair, it would seem unlikely. But deals can be made, no doubt.

If he steps down it will strip away all cover the Senate RINO’s have to filibuster his replacement.

Graham seems like a born sycophant. Until recently he was the toady to John McCain and was naturally a vocal advocate for “bipartisan” initiatives that amounted to backstabbing and betrayal of all things conservative. Then McCain died. A sycophant without a star to gravitate to and rotate around is a lost soul. It seems that he’s latched onto Trump as his new idol. Overnight he’s transformed into a fire breathing conservative fighter. Could all be fakery but at the very least it’s possible that as a temporary Trump ally and former Sessions colleague he may well be privy to a behind the scenes deal cut where Sessions “steps down” rather than being fired, and that gives people like Graham, who said that if Sessions is fired there would be hell to pay, room to walk that back.

I have occasionally wondered how Q believers are going to react when the little cretin is shown the door, soon after Tuesday.
