His fight for Brett Kavanaugh completed his transformation into Donald Trump’s slobbering manservant.
The battle over Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court was an especially ugly episode of a reality-show presidency that degrades almost everyone swept up in it, and many characters stagger away from it looking worse than ever.
That’s Senator Lindsey Graham you see at the head of the pack. That’s Graham you hear talking and talking and talking some more, in committee rooms and on stages and before the television cameras that he rushes to the way a toddler chases soap bubbles. His words are whichever ones guarantee a major role and a powerful patron, which means that these days he sounds like a more articulate echo of his golfing buddy: Donald Trump.

McCain is dead, Graham has to dangle from someone's balls.
How sad that he overcame Feinstein dirty tricks, beat back the democrats and got what he wanted. They should make him the bad guy in a Lifetime television for women mini-series
Graham was auditioning for Sessions' position.

I love me some righteous anger, especially when it's well placed against the circus Democrats in the Committee

Because I thought he was a Bobbsy twin of McCain's #neverTrump-ism
doesn't mean I can't recognize his public service of calling out the deplorable behavior of the Democrats
Committee behaviors.
Why do I need to be consistent ? can't i look at each action/statement on it's merits and criticize accordingly?

that's a partisan mindset.
You are acting like one is slavishly tied to criticism or support regardless of the circumstances.
The non-partisan approach is to evaluate the actions on their own -regardless of how they play out politically.
Graham used to get hung up on the McCain hate train that anything Trump said was deplorable.
Graham still criticizes Trump. I look at each statement on their own. sometimes i agree, some times I dont.
But in this instance he called out the Dem on their obnoxious behaviors -it had nothing to do with Trump
