There will be 'riots in the street' if Trump is prosecuted, Graham says

Washington Post/By Kim Bellware

Sen. Lindsey O. Graham said Sunday that there would be “riots in the street” if former president Donald Trump is prosecuted for taking classified government documents to his private Mar-a-Lago residence after leaving the White House.

Graham (R-S.C.) twice made a “riots in the street” remark during an appearance on Fox News’ “Sunday Night in America” as he launched into a broader commentary against what he perceived to be a two-tiered justice system tilted against the former president.

“There is a double standard when it comes to Trump,” Graham said, contrasting the FBI’s search of Mar-a-Lago to the agency’s probe of his political rivals, including Hillary Clinton for her use of a private email server while she was secretary of state, and President Biden’s son Hunter. (Hunter Biden is under investigation for tax liabilities, though Graham and other Republicans regularly say the FBI should probe his overseas business dealings.)

“And I’ll say this: If there is a prosecution of Donald Trump for mishandling classified information after the Clinton debacle … there will be riots in the street,” Graham said.

1. Will he riot with the other Trump minions who are serving time?

2. Trump has something on thsi guy.

There is no comparison to Hillary and what Trump has done. None! Graham needs to be prosecuted.

9. I agree, it has become obvious.

Graham keeps sticking his neck out for Trump, even when he has liability for doing so.

Trump is certainly capable of obtaining dirt on his friends and opponents.
And using it to help him.

[OLDMDDEM]

10. Trump will drop him in an instant

once things get dicier.

[Irish_Dem]

13. Trump's friends are in more danger than his enemies.

He uses them and throws them overboard.

[OLDMDDEM]

14. I agree

11. If not 45

Then the Russians or another enemy - and they have shared it with 45.

ETA
PS - the people of SC had a choice - and now I'm side eyeing every single person that voted for this shit ass.

12. Something about his change after McCain died

told me something was up.

[Faux pas]

3. ...

Pretty ballsy for a sackless little piss ant, huh?

[vlyons]

4. There will not be any damn riots

ok, so maybe a few fat ugly Bubbas in camo will smash the front window of a convenience store. But these threats of riots are just so much bullying. Their dreams of glory are delusional.

5. And a whole lot of dancing and partying.

6. There will be...

[Smackdown2019]

7. Lets be frank about this

Riots where?

Main street USA? Na...

Metropolitan? NA.

Violence onto Federal property or personnel? They probably would and done so before.

Trumpers will most likely flop their chicken wings like a fox in the hen house. The hen house being social media.

So, i seriously doubt anything come of this....

Main street USA is mostly Trumpers anyhow.
BLVDs are mostly sane 70 percent of US Population that is never-trump...

8. Just Bring it

[Chainfire]

16. You got it. Turn the lights on the roaches; get them out in the open and stomp them.

It is a hell of a message to send that, "If you try to do the right thing, we will burn down the house." Who the hell do these people think that they, and we, are?

15. If Graham thinks

Trump is so innocent then he needs to resign to represent him.
