Lindsey Graham Dies

 



Most people would be betting on Mitch McConnell going first, but Sen. Lindsey Graham (MAGAt-SC) beat him to the punch:

U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, one of President Donald Trump’s closest allies in Congress and a longtime advocate of direct confrontation with Iran, died Saturday evening after a “brief and sudden illness,” his office said in statement posted on social media...

He was 71.  It's best not to speak ill of the dead, so we'll leave it right there.

BONUS: Never gets old: 

2015: “[Donald Trump] is a race-baiting, xenophobic, religious bigot. He doesn’t represent my party. He doesn’t represent the values that the men and women who wear the uniform are fighting for.”

  1. One butcould hope the replacement Senator would have to be an improvement but the Republicans have a very deep bench---or maybe a very large rock garden would be more apropos.
