Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Wednesday said he thinks President Biden’s social spending and climate bill, the Build Back Better Act, is “dead forever,” as Senate Democrats struggle to get their caucus unified behind the legislation.

Graham pointed specifically to the wariness of Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.), who has signaled concerns about the roughly $2 trillion cost of the bill and its potential effects on inflation.

“I think Build Back Better is dead forever, and let me tell you why, because Joe Manchin has said he's not going to vote for a bill that will add to the deficit,” Graham said during an appearance on Fox News’s “Hannity.”

Yeah right Linda. Someone will cave.

I trust him about as far as I can throw my Jeep

When will South Carolina voters stop being so stupid?

Flimesy Grahamnesty is the most duplicitous Senator.

He has been re-elected TWICE after voting for amnesty and a permanent Democrat majority THREE times.

[The MAGA-Deplorian]

Sure Linda. And you up there believe you are fiscal republicans too!

[brownsfan]

Which means that behind the scenes Graham is working feverishly to revive it.

[Lurkinanloomin]

You got it.

[Fightin Whitey]

Yeah right Linda. Someone will cave

You aren't being fair. She is the expert as far as working from the back.

And "caves?"

You don't want to get near...

Reminds me of the “Bush Doctrine”.

DOA.

[CatOwner]

The GOP has said a lot of stupid things over the years.

Wanna bet? 100% chance of RINO cave

Marxist ideas never die.

“ When will South Carolina voters stop being so stupid?”

They don’t vote for him. He floods the primary with a mob of candidates. He wins the plurality. They all drop out. He walks into a gop seat the sc voters will never give away

[JonPreston]

If the nation is dependent on Lindsey Graham’s assessment on Joe Manchin’s future political position on a $trillion dollar spending bill, we’re f’d

[Bonemaker]

Adding to the deficit is one thing but how about all the filthy communist dreck that’s in it? That should be the number one reason to kill this turd with the deficit a distant second.

[Little Ray]

We can’t get that lucky.
Stolen elections have consequences.

[JonPreston]

Reminds me of the “Bush Doctrine'

It's alive and well and being practiced by Putin in the Ukraine. Not at all sure why our neocons are up in arms.

[Little Ray]

It’s not that easy.
Seniority and contributions to the RNC get him on important committees. Replacing him would forfeit all that. So the Palmetto State keeps returning him to office.

This is not good news because Graham hasn’t been right about anything of importance. He is also a smarmy RHINO who can’t be believed.
