Here’s what Lindsey Graham, Trump talked about at Mar-a-Lago over the weekend

Sen. Lindsey Graham visited former President Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort over the weekend in what he described as an effort to mend a fractured Republican Party.

Asked Monday evening by The Hill about his visit to the former commander-in-chief’s Palm Beach estate, Graham (R-South Carolina) said the two spent a great deal of time reaching out to candidates on the ballot in 2022.

The two “just talked about the 2022 cycle,” Graham explained, adding that, “He’s very involved in helping the team win.”

Trump “made a bunch of phone calls,” specifically with GOP senators, and is “trying to get the best team on the field.”

When asked by a CNN reporter which senators he spoke to, Graham declined to say, only noting that Trump’s message was, “You’ve been there for me and I’ll be there for you.”

Some of the 20 Republicans up for reelection in the 2022 cycle include Sens. Tim Scott (R-South Carolina), Marco Rubio (R-Florida), John Boozman (R-Arkansas), John Thune (R-South Dakota), Mike Lee (R-Utah), Ron Johnson (R-Wisconsin), Roy Blunt (R-Missouri) and James Lankford (R-Oklahoma).

Asked late Monday on “Hannity” if there was any indication he would run again in 2024, Graham said, “Stay tuned.”

Lee has a very good voting record.

Mike Lee is a scumbag who sells out US Engineers with his constant support for the Tech Overlords and their drive for more and more H1-B Visas.

Any work he supposedly does on the pro-life front is moot, because all these new imports vote overwhelmingly for Democrats and other pro-child-killing politicians.

What good is some occasional rhetoric when you import a new electorate with no American values?

And even worse, if he wins, so what? I think Trump has learned that the GOP was his greatest enemy. Every roadblock he faced came from the republican party. Except for his family he was pretty much alone.
The Democrats attacks could have easily been brushed aside had the vichy Bush republican party not allowed their depredations.

Trump’s main mission is to destroy the GOP establishment. If he cannot do that, there is little point in running again. There may not be anyway since the bureaucracy is so deeply entrenched. DC is like a house with a bad mold infestation. There comes a point that it cannot be saved.

His speech at CPAC might give us more insight as to his direction.

Picture of President Trump and Graham....

If that is a recent photo then you can see the sadness in his eyes. It makes me angry all over again that he won and was denied victory by widespread, planned fraud. And his opponent given the media reinforcement of the “appearance of a credible win” as the Time Magazine article admitted.

Again, he has a better voting record than most of them, easily.

Spot On.

Social Media displaced and consumed education in “skules” and actually all our traditional regard for every American institution, including even churches.

In fact, I’d say Academia and Churches were the first to eschew traditional American virtues and ideals, making collapse of ALL the rest easier.

He didn’t just win. He won the largest number of votes won by any Presidential candidate in US history.
This is a crime beyond belief.

The US Government is no longer legitimate and should be impeded, ignored, ridiculed and resisted everywhere possible.

Not sure if elections going forward will matter anyway, but if Trump runs as a Republican, I’m NOT voting!

Fully agree. They poisoned America’s roots first. Schools and churches. I feel like the churches came second, as the poisoned radical socialist graduates infected the churches and every other organization they could find.

The number of Repubs who actually opposed the steal, and the number who actively supported Trump during Russiagate, can be counted on one hand.

Its important to fight for Republican governors and state legislators, though some of those have been pretty disappointing. But the states have to be our fall-back to resist the usurpers in DC. But I wouldn’t give you a nickel for most of the GOP congressmen in DC.

“Yeah, Lindsey is like David Spade’s character from the “Coneheads” movie. He’s a fawning toady, and he’ll be a fawning toady to whoever he thinks will be the winner in the end.”

Excellent analogy.

Trump seems to believe “Keep your friends away, your enemies closer, and backstabbers behind you.”

Why don’t the states amend Constitution to give themselves the power to recall bad-apple federal lawmakers?

It can be done through Article V . If Trump were to go state by state lobbying for it with an offer to head up the Convention we could drain out the swamp by not allowing any current National elected officials to run again. Ever. Nanzi wanted to do that to Trump. Imagine getting an amendment passed that does that to her and more!

Some of most potent poison getting into the Church was the “Seeker Friendly” movement. Nothing offensive messages, just a big Sunday morning coffee shop with a “Christian” rock concert!

Pathetic!
