Lindsey's hair dye: could it be a call for help?

More wild-ass speculation here.

I've seen stuff about how the new do is real and about how it's just the lighting or something else, so I can't tell which way is up.

However, IF it's real, could it be a cry for help? Remember, this is speculation. Could it be that he's trying to get "turned out" (for lack of another word) so he can admit that he's gay and therefore not have POtuS have that on him? If he came right out, he'd be taking the blame, but if he's "turned out," he can use the "But I didn't do nothing, Mr. President and Komrade Vladimir Vladimirovich" defense.

If that were to happen, I'd advise Mr. Graham to avoid third-floor windows for a while.

Mr. Graham is being extorted by Trump. Lady G comes out if he does not do anything, and everything he is told to do. Trump told him to dye/style his hair like Trump.

And Graham is going all in to keep his secret. Even if it means destroying his country and looking like a fool.

Graham has always been infatuated by more powerful, charismatic people, even to the point of embarrassing obsequiousness. He's consciously or unconsciously trying to become Trump, like the character Vukovich slowly becomes Richard Chance in the movie To Live and Die in L.A.

Just my theory.

got into the botox cabinet.

At this rate, he'll look so much like his new idol before August.

...during the pandemic. Maybe he colored it himself?

Off-the-shelf color can look weird.

Maybe this is another of Trump's distractions to get the media to chase the next shiny thing. Maybe he's finished with Lindsey and decided to out him this way.

I have said this on other threads, but I don't care about Graham's personal life. I do care about his hypocrisy and his legislative cruelty.

Like most on here, I abhor racism, xenophobia, homophobia, gay bashing, union hating, sexism and am a lifelong woman’s advocate. Course that doesn’t change the not insignificant large group of assholes in South Carolina who harbor most if not all of those hateful “isms”. If Lindsey does get outed in this election, be interesting to see if that affects the rednecks who always vote for him.
