Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) was harassed at an airport in Washington, D.C., on Friday, a day after Congress formally tallied President-elect Joe Biden's Electoral College win.
Multiple videos posted to social media on Friday show Graham, who has been among President Trump's most vocal Senate supporters, being followed through an airport and being heckled as a "traitor."
Graham was buffered from the group by uniformed law enforcement as well as a security detail. A spokesperson for Graham declined to weigh in, saying that they don't comment on security issues.
The group, many of whom were filming the incident, appeared to be Trump supporters who believe conspiracy theories about the election. Trump has claimed for weeks that the election was "rigged," despite losing dozens of legal challenges and election experts dismissing claims of fraud.
At one point members of the group yell "audit the vote" and "you know it was rigged," in reference to the presidential election, and call him a "piece of shit."
Members of the group who followed and heckled Graham through the airport also include known supporters of QAnon, a baseless conspiracy theory that asserts that a group of Satan-worshipping, child-molesting Democrats and deep-state government officials has global control, and Trump is trying to expose them.
The confrontation comes a day after Congress tallied Biden's win, a process that was delayed for hours after rioters overtook the Capitol, forcing lawmakers to move to secure locations as the mob vandalized leadership offices.
Graham has been one of Trump's most vocal supporters in the Senate since 2017, but came out against challenging the election results through Congress. The effort was guaranteed to fall short regardless because a majority of both the House and Senate is required to successfully challenge a state's Electoral College vote.
Graham, speaking on the Senate floor late Wednesday, said "enough is enough."
"Trump and I, we had a hell of a journey. I hate it being this way ... All I can say is count me out. Enough is enough ... We've got to end it," Graham said, referring to the fight over the election results.
Actual Title:
“Graham harassed at airport after opposing Electoral College challenges”
How do you suppose it got changed like that?
Weak in the knees.
He’ll just hate us more. You can’t get through to people like
him. Look at McConnell and his spew from yesterday.
These people are totally out of touch with the people they
pretend to lead.
Think we made headway with Mitt?
These people are totally worthless to us.
Republicans keep voting them in.
This needs to be done every day that Senator Lindsey “Amnesty” Graham is in office. He a d every member of congress that voted for certifying the fraudulent election, both seditious communist Democrats and spineless Republicans.

“Republicans keep voting them in.”
The Whig party (1834-1854)
The Republican party (1854-2021)
Good.
We are experiencing the departure from the “of the people by the people for the people” form of government.
Hannity will prop him up on his show. Tune in to find out.
Tik-tok. Lindsay has a bombshell that will shock the conscience.
Let this happen to him and others every day and for the rest of their lives.
“Weak in the knees.”
He be smokin’ that blonde Lebanese.
this is heart warming.
Good
Someone should have done a bit more honestly
These GOPe are n9t RINOs
They are Republicans
This is what Republicans are despite talk radio pep rallies
Trump and Magnus and Goldwater and Helms and Gomert and Hawkley and Sarah are anomalies
Today’s GOPe is a a Carter democrat more or less
Nunn and Scoop and so on
Not much difference from Bushes or Mitch or McQueeg
It’s interesting he doesn’t speak to them. He usually does have something to say even when confronted.
Meh, a summary trial and execution would have been better. J/k /s
I agree
Wow! Loved it! He and many others will never be able to face their constituents again. This is his life now.
He's scared. Imagine that, being scared of Republicans! Turns out it is possible!
