According to reports, the lawyer for Jacob Chansley, also known as the "QAnon Shaman," has offered to have his client testify at Donald Trump's upcoming impeachment trial.

According to Chansley's lawyer Al Watkins, Chansley was "horrendously smitten" by Trump. "He felt like he was betrayed by the president," Watkins added.

But according to Sen. Lindsey Graham, having Chansley testify would just turn the trial into a "circus."

"I cannot think of a better way to turn the upcoming impeachment trial into a complete circus than to call the QAnon Shaman as a witness on anything," Graham tweeted this Friday.

I do so hope this happens.

1. He is one that SHOULD be on the stand to 'splain how he was suckered.

How they were riled up for months before the insurrection and who he listened too.
The US citizens need to hear it from exact this kind of tRumpie.

[TheBlackAdder]

36. Lindsey doesn't want any Non-Republican clowns in his circus. 🤡 There's already 45 of them.

[Mr. Ected]

2. Let the Shaman do the shamin'!

Graham: "Please don't squeeze the Shaman".

[sandensea]

22. Thread winner.

Bigly.

[Midnight Writer]

3. Graham has no say. He and the GOP refused to grant even one witness at Trump's last trial.

They have no standing in making the rules this time.

[SlogginThroughIt]

10. That's what I qas going to say!

These republicans need to get it through their thick skulls that they run exactly jack shit anymore!

[Butterflylady]

24. They know darn well that having witnesses

No matter how kooky they are, will damage the line they're trying to float. I just want to see them squirm.

[FirstLight]

4. I, for one, would watch the FUCK outta this!

...And dont let the Horned Idjit think or get ANY clemency or special treatment for testifying either, they are ALL seditionists!!!!

[RVN VET71]

53. Agree 100%, unless this guy has information incriminating Trump further

But I doubt he has any such information. He’ll just appear in a business suit, crying about how he was hypnotized by the Orange Pantload. And then he’ll be tried and, I sincerely hope, be found guilty and sentenced to a long stretch in the Federal slammer.

Still, I’ll pop the popcorn for his testimony.

[bdamomma]

5. Afraid

to hear what he's going say Lindsey???? Don't what to hear numbers of cult members say "tRump made me do it".

They full knew very well what they planned to do.

[Bev54]

6. No he should not and will not be called to testify

This Q nut and his attention seeking whore of a lawyer are the last people the dems will want to testify. There are several good and earnest witnesses that should be called, but this guy is not one of them. The dems must keep this as serious a trial as the offense of sedition commands.

[fwvinson]

28. He can be questioned in a closed session, under intense questioning.

And, if he thinks that will be a joke. Lordy, I hope there will be tape, later.

[malaise]

7. Lindsey doesn't have a say

Fuck off you ubiquitous asshole

[getagrip_already]

39. Now now, he is still ON the juciary committee

and he still gets one vote.

But he won't (hopefully) be the chair, and he will fall one vote short of making any decisions.

We need that damned reconciliation vote.

[Rustyeye77]

8. As long s he wears the same outfit with the horns and face paint

nt

[Hermit-The-Prog]

18. That's what I want to see. trumPutin and the GOP created a deadly circus, so SHOW it!

[sop]

9. "Qbacca"

[electric_blue68]

38. Hey, that's an insult to Chewie : (

[Mr. Ected]

11. We ALL know he'd implicate DJT

But what would be fascinating is if he divulged the vast GOP conspiracy that casts a net around all of these seditionists, Graham being one of them. This wasn't an ad hoc meeting of insurrectionists any more than the Tea Party was an organic grouping of individuals. There most certainly is a hierarchy and someone is going to spill the beans.

[gulliver]

12. They've got to call him.

Republicans need a chance to look in the mirror and see what they've become. The "Shaman's" no more ridiculous or circus-like than Trump himself.

[theneworiginal]

17. The more Graham is protesting,

The more I want to hear what Graham is afraid this “spiritual leader” will expose. For as much of a poser and loser he is, Q-bacca was clearly an organizer and likely has detailed to investigators a number of conversations with Trump family and or loyalists. Let him name names.

And Graham is asking the DEMS to stop the circus atmosphere?!? Huh?!? Talk to your own crackpots, Linsey.

[old guy]

13. Lindsey, no one could make it more of a circus than a clown like you.

[dchill]

45. Yep. We're already there.

[FSogol]

14. Lindsey's presence is only requirement to make it a circus.

Cue: Circus theme

[Talitha]

44. Can't start the parade without the Clown!

[CentralMass]

15. Says the organ grinders monkey Lindsey Graham.

[czarjak]

16. Bullshit Bandwagon Wagonmaster cannot think?

[eleny]

19. No wonder - He's probably a registered Republican

[bucolic_frolic]

20. That causal link is evident without the Shaman

And his lawyer is overplaying his hand. Expert psychologist testimony would be needed to establish his obsessions.

[TNNurse]

21. Oh, Lindsey,

You are such a huge part of the circus, whether he testifies of not.

[mountain grammy]

23. He's your guy, Lindsey.. embrace it!

[mgardener]

25. Doesn't he realize that unless

Republicans put a stop to this here and now, these people will own the Republican party?

[orangecrush]

26. Dr. Frankenstein is scared?

[Evolve Dammit]

27. Call him. Question him. We need truth and he seems articulate. FU Leningrad Lindsey. n/t

[dawn5651]

29. and the last four years haven't been a complete circus with a russian asset clearly out of his depth

making policy sort of, issuing threats against people, calling people filthy names.....ya...the qanon shamon is gonna make the impeachment trial a circus...NOT

[Hassler]

30. If they let him testify, Lindseed might need to get tanked and

Deliver one of his tear-jerking soliloquies.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

31. Heard the lawyer interviewed on Canadian radio. Very smart & likely to serve his client well. . . nt

[CentralMass]

37. I saw him on Chris Cuomo's on CNN and he was making the case for his client's innocence but Cuomo

was having non of it.
It was right after it happened and the lawyer was basically sayingg that his client was a nice guy and that he wondered in because the doors were open etc.. Cuomo was like, ya right, he was carrying a 6 foot spear, etc..

[Bernardo de La Paz]

40. I don't think his client will get off scot free, but will get best sentence of the high profile guys

[CentralMass]

47. I think that he deserves no special consideration.

[Ford_Prefect]

32. What was that quote about 'doth protest too much", Lindsey?

[birdographer]

33. If it scares Lindsey, it works for me. nt

[spanone]

34. He thought trump would pardon him....Bwahahahahahahahaaaa

[Paladin]

35. He's all yours, Lindsey. Come and get him. (nt)

[wryter2000]

41. He's not going to show up in his costume

And guess what, Lindsey...you get no say.

[coti]

42. I can think of one- call Trump.

After all, we turned our country into a circus by electing him President.

[BobTheSubgenius]

43. QAnon Shaman MUST be there and testify!

It will be a highlight of the proceeding, and a MAJOR one at that. Bring on the crazy!!!

[dustyscamp]

46. Eh, I don't really trust the shaman guy

He's just going to appear in court and say anything just to save his own ass.

[Rebl2]

48. Good lord

What does Lindsey think the last four have been with trump in office?

[TlalocW]

49. I think I speak for all members of the Royal Order of Water Buffalo - including Fred and Barney

That not allowing Brother Jacob to testify would be a travesty.

TlalocW

[MyMission]

50. He wanted republican witnesses

And I've read that quite a few of the insurrectionists stated they had acted at the request/order of their president. They should all testify. I've also read that many are willing and have offered to do so.

[Mr. Ected]

51. Hey Lindsey: Fool us once, Shaman You

Fool us twice, Shaman Me.

Not falling for it, you seem scared.

[C Moon]

52. I hope those watching him are cleared of any right wing extremism...

it would be ironic if something happened, though.

[Blue Owl]

54. Meanwhile, Lindsey is having wild Shaman fantasies

[alphafemale]

55. I'm fairly certain Q-baca cleans up quite nicely

Although the thought of him being sworn in, and testifying in that get-up?
