When @RepJerryNadler played a clip of @LindseyGrahamSC from the Clinton impeachment, Graham wasn’t in the chamber- the only senator not in his or her seat at that moment.

Lindsey Graham walked out of the chamber moments before Nadler played a clip of him just now

1:51 PM - Jan 23, 2020

He knew it was coming, and the coward ducked out.

1. Why face up to being a hypocrite when you can run...

[TheBlackAdder]

15. That's better. Everyone could see Graham is a hypocrite without the awkwardness of him there.

[ck4829]

25. Right

[Mike 03]

2. The senators were given handouts. Maybe there was an indication it was coming on

the handouts?

[ancianita]

3. Out of shame that he's DEVOLVED instead of EVOLVED. Or out of cowardice.

[Chellee]

22. i think that it has to be cowardice.

They seem incapable of shame.

[marlakay]

4. I thought they weren't allowed to leave

The room?

[shanti]

18. Who's stopping them?

If Roberts won't stop them, no one will. It's not just R's that are doing this. Diane Feinstein left early yesterday too. Like Chris Hayes said, this is their job, they MUST stay!

5. K&R for exposure!

[malaise]

6. He was tipped off

Fuck them!

[dewsgirl]

7. Of course he did.🙄

[rainin]

8. Everyone else saw the clip and saw Graham was out of his seat.

What a great moment!

[gratuitous]

9. Not only are you a fraud, Senator Graham

You're a gutless fraud as well. Unlike Paul Newman, though, Graham isn't playing a game, and he will never be shamed into integrity:

[CaptYossarian]

16. Gutless enough to get a case of the vapors.

[ck4829]

24. Very True

[H2O Man]

10. Recommended.

That's very telling. It provides more ammunition that if the snake had stayed in his seat.

[Marcuse]

11. Isn't the Sargent at Arms now obligated by duty to lock him up in the old Senate lavatory?

[renate]

12. Brave Sir Robin

[MontanaMama]

21. Perfect.

[dem4decades]

13. Did Nadler say "Now let's look at the biggest hypocrite" just before ne left?

[2naSalit]

14. He's such a chickenshit.

[Poiuyt]

20. Why is it so easy to see Lindsey Graham connected with a fainting couch?

[ProudMNDemocrat]

19. The rest of the Senate saw it.....

I am sure the news will get to Jamie Harrison. That Lindsey Graham is a coward, a HYPOCRITE at best.

[ck4829]

23. What a coward
