I am perplexed by the juxtaposition of his close friendship with McCain and his shift to lap dog for The Asset.

Maybe he’s Kompromat, or maybe he’s doing a ‘keep your enemies closer’ - trying to difuse a possible immediate firing of Sessions and buying time for Rosenstein and Mueller to finish.

It’s a possibility.

And when trump does anything like firing people or anything I expect what putin has, others here have also , and they will expose him . Just a matter of time , then his actions are exposed what he is involved in , and his personal life he's hiding. The way he switched recently makes it look like its pretty bad , or something that'll hurt him bad politically when exposed, or both.

When Trump took Graham golfing one weekend, he told Lindsay to support him or else!
It is pretty well thought that Lindsay is gay, and no doubt Trump had knowledge of it, and that he could hold it over Lindsay.

It is a shame that all the time Trump has been against McCain, his friend Lindsay has never uttered a word.

They don't have problems with this, so they likely don't have an issue with Graham doing that, either:

I mean Graham cosponsered a bipartisan bill to protect Mueller that he now says is unnecessary.

Also, I realize you have to have thick skin in politics but I'd be hard pressed to kiss the ass of a guy who talked such shit about me on the campaign trail and gave out my personal cell phone number!
