What happened to Lindsey Graham? [View all]

I remember when he called Trump a race-bating xenophobic bigot. He was a moderate voice. Now he has ditched every principle he ever held. He has no empathy for anyone, apart from the man he dismissed as an irrelevant racist. He cannot even show empathy for a woman who says she was the victim of an attempted rape. People don't just change into a different person. Something happened. Something got to him. Something changed beyond all recognition. What happened?
