AD: Lindsey Graham Loves Joe Biden

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) gushes in a new Republican ad that former Vice President Joe Biden is “as good a man as God ever created” — while President Donald Trump is a “xenophobic, race-baiting, religious bigot.”

What a difference an administration makes. The comments were pulled from Graham’s past, “before he lost his conscience” and became one of the president’s staunchest defenders, noted a statement from the Republican Voters Against Trump.

The ad backing Trump’s Democratic presidential rival features a very different Graham. It will run on Fox News in the Charlotte and Greenville markets, reaching both South Carolina and the swing state of North Carolina. It will also air on Fox News in Washington, D.C.

“You want to know how to make America great again?” Graham asked in 2015. “Tell Donald Trump to go to hell.”

And Lindsey Graham as well. Release him from whatever torture chamber he has locked himself in.

Double bonus!

I left the ... there because there are so many disparaging ways to say how his complete lack of personal ethics is destroying this country.

Must be pretty powerful as well.

He is both a man of no conscience and a man with a conscience (for bad behavior) at the same time.

than continuing to destroy millions of American lives.

Analogies of men on the Titanic life-boats pushing off others that want to survive. Lindsay, Mitch, Donnie.

But for a spineless man like Lindsay Graham, that one step is too frightening to consider.

Amazing that he was a Military JAG. He must have missed the training class on honor and courage.

Is being blackmailed he is probably happy at this ad and hopes it gets played a lot. Says his true feelings that he can’t say.

I bet he hopes Trump loses and goes to jail. And I bet he is living with a lot of guilt.

My take on him is he is scared to death of Trump for whatever he has on him. I think he is ready to retire but is being pushed and blackmailed by republicans.

personal image?

Everyone knows Linsday is corrupt, along with mBitch along with every (r) in congress and probably throughout the current state governments.

At some point could they all just say "We give. Enough is enough. There are so many of us that have been compromised that if we all 'came out' together, we'd probably do OK"?

Then I remember all the Chuck Colson types after Watergate that "found god" and then continued to be evil.

Don't trust anyone who has chosen the (r) tag.

since we're trying to get rid of him and McConnell both. Lindsay Graham is the one who has been getting all these rightwing nuts as judges for the senate to confirm.

but I'm not sure they were that far apart on trying to keep the (r)epuglicons in power and destroying any liberal policies.
