Not at all. He’s just back to his original, true self. Anyone who thought that his change in rhetoric during the Kavanaugh hearings was sincere or permanent was deluding himself. Graham was just worried of getting primaried out, and without no threat of that happening on the horizon, he can go back to being the McCain Republican that he’s been all along.
“He certainly is a snake in the grass. I hope Hannity finally wakes up to this traitor.”
And all those wonderful FBI field agents.
Lotsa manipulated news on this nomination.
thass ok, just do the “acting”... put a real asshole in there and the nominee the president wants will sail thru
Someone found John McCain’s fudge packing pictures.
I think that he is trying to hide dirty deeds he did with McCain involving ISIS, Ukraine and China.
Graham is far too busy not doing any investigations.
Does Trump really need somebody really need somebody in that position? Can’t the instructions and leadership go to some anonymous place holder, perhaps somebody who is retired and comes back on contract? I don’t see where this will interfere with whatever Trump needs to get done. Am I wrong?
What happens if it’s unfilled, do the cases just pile up or go to someone else?
Destroy him with a third party option .
The evil evil monster should be gone .
Wake up trump .
Well if they do, that means our side must know what that dirt is...it is time for our side to have a sit down with this political whore.
I am not surprised at his refusal to advance the name. I am surprised he broadcast it.
Does Durham have the SDNY US Attorney in his sights???
As for Graham, POTUS needs to play hardball and hold up something Graham wants from him. Holding a needed signature or endorsement and Graham will pee in his pants.
So, screw the committee crap and have Turtle take it up in the full Senate.
Stop screwing around, Linda...
I’m surprised that someone at the fag bathhouse hasn’t offed him yet.
If you have a Republican Senator please take the time to write to them that this is unacceptable. Be courteous but firm. This hat in hand posture has got to stop.
Barr has asked POTUS to fire SDNY AG and he has done so. Letter has been made public.
My post was not an idea of my feelings about blue slip, just that it existed and Graham didn’t indicate it even made a difference other than allowing a process that has been used in the senate for over 100 years to be accomplished.
Prior to 2014, when the conservatives took control of the senate, they drove Obama nuts with going nay on every blue slip they came across and the first of the Trump years were 3 in 2017. This part of the process is just a formality and has no effect on the overall outcome unless the senate majority, McConnell who hates them, or Graham holds the nomination in committee, it will go to a vote after some he(( raising by the liberals. But they media is making it sound like it is a given that Graham will stop it. He didn’t say that. Let’s wait for what happens instead of pointing fingers like a lot of posters in this thread are doing. The blue slips haven’t stopped a Trump nomination yet....only Trump can if it is voted upon and passed. Blue slip can’t stop that.
