Lindsey Graham: ‘I Don’t Know What America First Means’
Breitbart ^ | 1/22/2017

Posted on 01/22/2017 1:19:40 PM PST by Altura Ct.

Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” while discussing President Donald Trump’s inaugural address calling for his policy to be informed by putting “America first,” Sen. Lindsey Graham, (R-SC) said, “I don’t know what America first means.”

Graham said, “To the president, if America first is a throwback to the 20’sand 30’s isolationism when it was first used as a phrase, the world would deteriorate even quicker, if it is a new way of Ronald Reagan’s peace through strength I would like to work with him. I don’t know what America first means.”

A kindergartner would understand what “America First” means. But I figure Miss Lindsey’s intelligence may not have risen to that level.

“The man is stupid, just duplicitous...”

He could also be stating he doesn’t know so the media doesn’t hold it over him. Whatever he says it means the media will twist his words. Best to act like an idiot than open your mouth and prove it.

Graham has never been accused of being the sharpest knife in the drawer.

No, dumbass Lindsey Graham, it means President Trump will put the interests of the United States in front of the interests of other countries.

And also, Graham, President Trump will NOT bow to the king of Saudi Arabia; he will not bow to the emperor of Japan, he will not bow to the head of Kenya; and he will not ask permission from the dictator of China before he takes a phone call.

Not surprised he would say that, even for his own purposes!..but...

I cannot be the only geezer around here who was around back prior to PH when Chas Lindbergh was still around...and Father Coughlin who was also a part of the Old America First Committee.

Nobody remembers Lindbergh flying with the Marines during WWII, although FDR had banned him from military service.

Lotta history there...oh...that’s right that’s not taught anymore. I suppose in the public schools and universities there is some minimal form of “history” used as social engineering, etc.

But for those who thirst for knowledge, such info is still available...even on the ‘Net, and various other places!

...And I don’t know what “Senator Graham” means. To me someone with that title has both common sense and a bit in the way of guts. Linda has neither. It is an absolute shame on the people of South Carolina that they keep reelected this half-witted, ass-kissing, globalist.

How about if you folks from South Carolina get your act together the next time this creature is up for election, huh?

Of course Lindsey don't know what, "America first" means.

It's why Graham and all his deceitful associates lost big. They watched this entire election and now pretend they don't know what this is all about? What a pack of liars.

Trump's comments about defeating Islamism makes it pretty obvious that he does not mean isolationism.
