Lindsey wanted to make sure Democrats have something to push them to the polls.

Lindsey and Republicans had no chance of passing such legislation. They were not in the majority. But Lindsey announced his plans anyway.

Linda is safe until ‘26. Will primary voters remember? Nancy Mace will be the replacement. At least she’s easy on the eyes.

Cool. Sounds like a state issue, not federal.

Poor Linda. One minute he’s on Trump’s SC campaign leadership team and the next minute he’s treated like a used toilet paper. I can’t say I’m unhappy about it though.

Just as aside, I’ve always preferred “Limpsy Graham” over “Linda Graham”, but I suppose they both work.

I remember Lindsey threatening to impeach Trump if he fired Robert Mueller after Rosenstein appointed him for the Russian collusion probe.

Not long ago Trump was bringing Lindsey to his rally’s and trying to push him on his supporters who then booed.

Lindsey and his booby trap. That asswipe has no intention of ever even attempting to pass a law like that. He truly is trying to hand democrats lots of votes.

Why does NC keep voting this traitorous POS back in?

No, I think you’re wrong on this. Trump needed to get out front of what the pantywaste Graham tried to scare democrats into turning out with. He had to go there on ‘abortion’ when it’s such a hot-button issue right now? Linda’s definitely trying to skewer R’s again right before an election.

Trump’s policy is the correct one of state’s rights and I’m glad he made that clear to the imbecile class, distancing himself and MAGA from liar Linda.

>>”Long overdue, but much appreciated.”

It is long overdue, and I’m not going to defend every endorsement Trump’s ever made. But I will say, stepping back and looking at it at a macro-level, I’m struck by the fact that the MAGA movement has shown a steady increase in momentum over the past 8 years, not as fast as any of us would have liked, but my sense is that Trump’s strategy has always been to not get ahead of himself and to wait for the right time to strike.

Could he and should he have pushed back against Graham earlier? Probably. But it’s worth noting that when Trump finally makes a move on a particular front, he usually gets what he wants. Once he went public in support of McDaniel stepping down as GOP chair, she was out within a matter of a month or two, and replaced with the very competent, MAGA-friendly team we have today.

We saw a similar thing play out with Kevin McCarthy. It seems pretty clear that Trump had a hand in bringing about his ouster. Now is Mike Johnson all we would like him to be? No. But there’s no denying he was an improvement over McCarthy and that the House GOP’s center of gravity has take a definite shift in the MAGA direction.

That’s a good question that nobody has an answer for.

Apparently because of Trump’s endorsement.

Send Ms Lindsey! Make sure Lindsey gets a new dress before going to the front and leading the charge!

Linseed has made this sort of "unforced error" too many times to be anything other than intentional. He knew the electoral consequences, he wanted those consequences.

Either my eyes are going or my moral compass is out of whack. I read that last word as 'euthanized.'

If it's my compass I blame the eclipse. :P

Graham has had that Senate seat since 2003, long before Trump ever came on the scene. The only election for which Trump endorsed Graham was the 2020 election. Whether he would have won without Trump’s endorsement, I can’t say, but his state had already re-elected him twice before.
