Graham backtracks on earlier Jan. 6 criticism of Trump: ‘It depends on what the conduct is’
The Hill ^ | 12/31/2023 | SARAH FORTINSKY

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Sunday appeared to backtrack on earlier criticism of former President Trump’s actions on Jan. 6 and suggested instead that his presidential immunity defense was “a legitimate claim” as he moves forward with various court battles.

In an interview on CBS News’s “Face the Nation,” Graham was pressed on whether he stands by his 2021 statement that Trump could still be prosecuted for wrongdoing and that “the president’s conduct is subject to the law of the land.”

You can depend on Graham to be consistent except when you can’t.

That swaying pendulum of opinion first one way and then the other makes him hard to pin down.

On his side:

“A wise man changes his mind, a fool never will.”

Looks like the Uniparty knows it has failed to take Trump down using Lawfare.

.......whatever!.........but, I don’t think I would have done anything but Quit on the spot the first time because I can see how you could, as a crew person, be charged with aiding and abetting trafficking minors......and there goes your LIFE !!!

If we had a functioning LEO that is exactly what could have happened. One look at Chris Wray and one wonders if he knew about the Lolita Express???

Graham is an opportunist.

When you don’t base your comments on a solid foundation then it gets hard to remember your lies.

Like most politicians, what Linda means by this is “It depends on the poll numbers at the moment.”

Covering his bases
This is a pretty clear indication We can get President Trump re elected again and officially next Fall.
Lots to do. If a sizable number of Trump voters committed to registering and helping new and lapsed voters to vote for Trump it overcomes the fraud. We can also raise awareness and make it difficult for the pricks to cheat
