I think Lindsey Graham is solidly in President Trump’s corner. Every so often, he, McConnell and other Republicans like to “stand up to the President” to show the public that they are not yes-men. They make critical public statements and vote against him in non-binding resolutions, but in the important things they do the right thing.

If you think about the Kavanaugh hearings, the fact that Lindsey Graham did NOT have a reputation for being particularly pro-Trump made his defense of the judge far more powerful.

Since then, he has come to be seen as a steady supporter of the President - maybe too much so. I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that he and the President had sat down to explore ways of removing the pro-Trump stigma and help make him appear less of a yes-man.

I think that’s a fair assessment.

Ever since his post-McStain transformation, I tend to look for the good side of Sen. Graham.

He may not be everything we might want in a senator from a Southern state — but he’s a lot better than Mitt Romney, or any RAT.

Actually, the only senator I think is 100 percent on the side of the patriots is Louisiana’s John Kennedy.

As for the rest, we just have to deal with them the way they are — a collection of big egos with little action to back it up. At least McTurtle is getting judges confirmed.

But even at their worst, Pubbies don’t want to completely trash the Constitution and set up a one-party dictatorship.

There is no such thing as a good RAT. Failing to vote GOP because a candidate isn’t ideologically pure enough is a recipe for the ultimate takeover of communism.
