17. Hm, yes. Graham was only one of several who abandoned his

dignity, reputation, and legacy to put on bizarre public displays of support. Abrupt personality changes that astonished all who knew them.

Some, like Jonathan Turley, maintained superficially respectable postures for those who didn't care what they were saying, but others, like Dershowitz and Giuliani, and of course Graham, behaved more like frenetic circus dogs forced to do tricks in clown costumes.
