Trump Sycophant Lindsey Graham: 'I Will Do Everything I Can to Make Impeachment Die Quickly'

“This thing will come to the Senate, and it will die quickly, and I will do everything I can to make it die quickly,” Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham said of the coming senate impeachment trial of President Donald Trump during an interview with CNN.

When asked if expressing an opinion on the matter beforehand is appropriate, Graham said, “Well, I must think so because I’m doing it.”

The South Carolina senator went on to explain that he’s all about honesty, “I am trying to give a pretty clear signal I have made up my mind. I’m not trying to pretend to be a fair juror here. What I see coming, happening today is just a partisan nonsense.”

The interview came while Graham attended the Doha Forum in Qatar where he told the audience that Trump would actually gain a political advantage after the impeachment process.

Lindsey's comments, if taken as true, will prevent him from taking the oath in good faith, or be clear evidence that he is falsifying his oath. Truth and Lindsey are mutually exclusive now.

give that man a nice hemlock chaser after the oath. He has earned it.

Why am I not even supersized or shocked or anything that desperation about the dismal fate of the GOP would drive this kind of behavior? No Sir, not even a little bit of WTF? here.

and it needs to come soon. Who has the kompromat on him? Once this is outed then maybe we can get to the truth about trump, as well. Stop handling him with kid gloves and kick his arss around a bit. Lindsey stands by the side of trump while he bullies a 16 year old girl who, is a world wide, climate activist hero? Someone, journalists, please go after these trump enablers. Peace out.

lacks decency. Trump is who they are. He merely brought the roaches out into the light.
