Monday on FNC’s “Fox News Primetime,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) criticized the merits of the impeachment articles brought against former President Donald Trump for allegations of incitement.
Graham said the impeachment proceedings were unconstitutional and also questioned if Trump’s remarks qualified as a violation of the incitement statute.

Good news. Thank you Senator Graham.
If you are looking for speech that fits “incitement”, go here:

Has anyone talked about why John Roberts is not presiding at this trial? Has anyone talked about if this is even officially an impeachment trial, if the Chief Justice isn’t there, since the Constitution says that in a presidential impeachment trial, that the Chief Justice shall preside?
Has John Roberts said why he won’t be there?
You mean Linda Back-Stabber, Turn-Coat, Hypocrite is upset?
Hey, Linda. Have you thanked Trump for helping you get re-elected? No?
Linda feeling heat from his constituents?
Get bent Democrats.
Former presidents cannot be impeached and have immunity.
Why is anyone even showing up for it? There’s nothing they can do... Trump legal shouldn’t even show up.
Yea, and Chamberlin had a “peace agreement” that he waved around too Lynthy.
What is he even talking about?
Yesterday he was yelling about how no one should say anything during the trial
These creeps will slither out of the trial. That’s what they’re good at. Slithering
Hey! How about a “image” warning ... it’s still early out here!
I don’t think that they can show a string of words from Trump’s speech which looks anything like “incitement to riot”.
They may have to fall back on a penumbra or emanation from the speech. If they do that, they are free to decide a court case in any way they want. Because whatever. “It was a dog whistle, but I know what he meant, because I’m super clever.”
Impeachment requires a trial in the Senate.
The Senate committed election fraud by certifying Kamala Harris as Vice President when she is Constitutionally unqualified as a Natural Born Citizen (NBC).
In 2007 the Senate passed Senate Resolution 511 that stated John McCain was a NBC because he was ‘born of American citizen parents on a US Military base’.
Harris is an unnatural born native born of parents from different foreign jurisdictions who they were subject to by the act of issuing their passports to visit here.
All but 2 of the Senators voted to confirm Harris as VP despite their own Resolution and definition of NBC.
Propounding the lie of an unqualified candidate is election fraud.
Trump is correct. This is massive.
That’s nice. Why didn’t Graham say this when the GOP had control of the Senate and could have dismissed this garbage on Constitutional grounds?
The best you’ll get out of the fools when you ask for exactly when he incited people to enter the Capitol is that Trump incited people over years. It’s all extremely vague and basically amounts to the argument that he made his supporters angry with his rallies. But that’s not legitimate incitement to riot. All of this is just more anti-Trump insanity.
Good news. Thank you Senator Graham.
A good look at his daily view. Can’t wait to see what he thinks tomorrow.
He will not be there. Donald Trump is not President. The Constitution is specific.
Has John Roberts said why he won’t be there?
Yes because the Constitution states the the Chief SCOUTUS will preside over the impeachment of the POTUS. Trump isn’t POTUS, so he told the Senate to pound sand.
Saying nothing is the right thing to do.
Oh. You think graham is on trumps side. On our side.
Ok that’s a waste of my time
