BREAKING: Lindsey Graham gives his support to President Trump's efforts to fill the vacancy on the Supreme Court
Lindsey Graham's Twitter Account ^ | 9/18/20 | Lindsey Graham

Posted on 09/19/2020 11:35:32 AM PDT by Yossarian

Here is the Twitter feed last updated 11 minutes ago from Senator Lindsey Graham:



Lindsey Graham
@LindseyGrahamSC
US Senate candidate, SC

The two biggest changes regarding the Senate and judicial confirmations that have occurred in the last decade have come from Democrats.

#1



Lindsey Graham
@LindseyGrahamSC
US Senate candidate, SC

* Harry Reid changed the rules to allow a simple majority vote for Circuit Court nominees dealing out the minority.

* Chuck Schumer and his friends in the liberal media conspired to destroy the life of Brett Kavanaugh and hold that Supreme Court seat open.

#2



Lindsey Graham
@LindseyGrahamSC
US Senate candidate, SC

In light of these two events, I will support President @realDonaldTrump in any effort to move forward regarding the recent vacancy created by the passing of Justice Ginsburg.

#3



Lindsey Graham
@LindseyGrahamSC
US Senate candidate, SC

I know Jaime Harrison -- who opposed the Kavanaugh nomination and joined the mob in the destruction of this fine man -- will oppose ANY Trump nominee.

I hope the people of South Carolina know that as well.

#4



Lindsey Graham
@LindseyGrahamSC
US Senate candidate, SC
Replying to @LindseyGrahamSC

Jaime Harrison will be a loyal foot soldier in the cause of the radical liberals to destroy America as we know it.

As to me – I will be part of the Resistance and oppose their radical liberal agenda as they try to fundamentally change America.

OK, that's one of the question-mark Senators making it clear he'll do the right thing.

We need to hear definitive statements from Chuck Grassley, Ben Sasse, Susan Collins, and Mitt Romney

Any Republican senator who doesn’t vote to affirm Trump’s nominee can kiss their ass goodbye. It will not be forgotten or forgiven.

What is Grassley’s problem?

Is he one of the posers who play Mr. Conservative until events like this pull down his fig leaf?

This gives them a great chance to get that much needed conservative, strict constitutionalist on the Supreme Court and retain the White House and the Senate. We can’t afford to blow it.

Keep a very close eye on Pierre Defecto, Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins and Ben Sasse.

The GOP will be finished.

The base will be demoralized and stay home, costing both President Trump and Mitch McConnell their jobs. President Biden will replace RBG and President Harris will replace Thomas and Alito. The Democrat majority congress will lurch so far to the Left, so fast, our heads will spin.

And that's it. It'll be as if the last four years never happened (and liberals will put legislation in place to ensure it never happens again).

This will be Mitch McConnell's finest hour and political suicide to any Republican senator who stands in his way.

Well gee...that’s might white of you Lindsey. Should the President kiss your ring to seal the deal?

Susan Collins will be committing political suicide if she goes against a nominee. Isn’t Ben Sasse very pro-life? Don’t think Grassley will be a problem. Romney? I’ll join any demonstration against him that involves tar and feathers and pitch forks if he votes against a nominee.

Pierre Defecto AKA Mittens has already said that those who said he would block President Trump’s nominee were lying. Linda has now said he is going to support the President. This needs to be muscled through as quickly as possible, before the opposition gets a chance to figure out any way to cause more trouble than they already have.

It’s a good start. Let’s pray he gets everyone else in line.

I don't think any of them will not confirm. All of them realize leaving a 4-4 court in place is dangerous and not what our forefathers intended.

Best to keep your definitive statements to yourself except within the party.

gardner was a sitting congressman who ran for the senate with a platform of fiscal conservatism, to get rid of obumbercare and to fix illegal immigration. After he won, before he left the house, he voted to fund obumbercare for two years, supported obumbers massive spending initiatives and voted for boehner who was staunchly supportive of illegal immigration.

The girls sure as hell aren’t going to vote against a female nominee.

If Mitch and Lindsey pull this off, they will be my new heroes. Graham in particular is in the middle of his toughest reelection battle, and he will have to stop campaigning to run the Judiciary Committee hearings. As for Mitch, beginning with killing the nomination of Merrick Garland, he has done more to move the courts back in our direction than anyone could have predicted.

Graham's tweets #4 and #5 sound like he expects to lose his reelection. Is he doing that bad? He briefly became a "rock star" when he fought for Kavanaugh, so maybe these hearings will be better than any campaigning. It's possible that Trump, Mitch and Lindsey all know the Dems will overstep like they did with Kavanaugh, and tip the entire electorate to the right.

Gardener is almost certainly going to lose his seat to Democrat Hickenlooper.

I think he’s going to vote to confirm to try and save his seat.

Every single Republican will line up to pledge fealty in this election year, institutional party vote.
