Trump mocks Lindsey Graham at presser, cracks up room full of reporters
BizPac Review ^ | 01/11/2017 | Carmine Sabia

President-elect Donald Trump took no prisoners in a contentious press conference Tuesday.

A reporter questioned Trump on a bill Graham and Sen. John McCain are proposing to increase sanctions on Russia.

“I haven’t heard Lindsey Graham is going to do that. Lindsey Graham, Lindsey Graham, I’ve been competing with him for a long time. He’s going to crack that 1 percent barrier one day,” Trump quipped.

Lindsey Graham can only dream of that huge 3% to 4% that Jeb Bush achieved.

They should form a chess club or something.

ROFL!!

I would like to have more conservatives than we do in the senate, but it is what it is.

Anybody know how many Truly conservative senators we got that are R?

Or how many that would give Trump a hard time? I guess that’s just as important.

McCain, Graham and Rubio all support amnesty

McCain, Graham and Rubio all supported arming jihadists

McCain and Rubio should not have been re-elected.

Graham isn’t up again until 2020.

I am not optimistic that he will be removed, South Carolina, like Arizona, loves Cheap Labor Express stooges.

It is important to those like McCain and Graham to get publicly smacked down, so they get no more followers. In the case of Graham, he's from South Carolina, and so it isn't electorally expedient for him to be such a nuisance. If he were from New Hampshire or Illinois, you might understand it. But South Carolina?

I’m in the minority here, but I give Arizona a little leeway, since ousting John McCain with someone much more conservative gives Democrats a chance at that Senate seat.

South Carolina, on the other, has zero excuse. It’s a solid red state, and they could easily oust Lindsey Graham in the primary for a Jim DeMint-type, and still win comfortably in November.

There may be a few more after some figure out who's now in charge and DJT stiffens a few spines.

Yesterday, Tuesday, at the Sessions Confirmation Hearing Lindsay asked a very strange question in a very harsh tone. He had a very odd expression on his face to go with this. Basically he seemed to be asking Sessions if he knew that the Russians were mean and hacked the election. Sessions indicated that he had read press reports but did not have additional info.

Lindsay acted frustrated with this answer but was obviously leading somewhere with this. Whatever Lindsay was trying to do did not quite come out in the questioning or response. Now when you add up that Lindsay and McCain both knew of the intelligence report on the dastardly things Trump supposedly did in Moscow and Trump’s supposed close relationship with Putin, and Lindsay’s knowledge that this wicked information was to explode into public just before Trump’s news conference, it really makes me wonder.

I believe that Lindsay and McCain did not endorse Trump because they were tricked by the phony intel report before the election and expected to be seen as correct all along in their assessment of Trump. These two senators are dangerous wild cards and are not friends of Trump’s movement.

Linda Graham’s dreams of the big house on the plantation went poof! in that press conference. That’s what happens when you let McCain show the way.

Nope. That's not it. Got two more free guesses.

Well if you look at the rest of their Congressional delegations, it sure seems like they love Cheap Labor Express stooges.
Arizona knew Jeff Flake was one (or should have) and they still elected him Senator.
Joe Wilson is the exception in SC.
Trent Franks is the exception in AZ
