About waiting closer to election to expose Lindsey Graham...

Why wait? Something like this could backfire and throw sympathy in Graham's direction. Especially if it involves being gay. I know conservative Republicans who told me that they're okay with it.

I don't understand why the late reveal will make a difference.

1. If that is all it's about: yawn.

I don’t think that is such a big secret anyway (everyone in Washington knows) and I don’t think anyone cares.

I think it is something else.

[Baitball Blogger]

2. I hope so.

[Skittles]

3. I am guessing teenaged boy

yup

[Baitball Blogger]

4. Ah. Well there's that.

[NurseJackie]

6. It's either a live teenager... or a dead prostitute

... but it's definitely sexual in nature. Possibly illegal porn?

[Skittles]

32. I'm thinking it is very bad

because Lindsey didn't just despise Trump and then started accepting him, we went full-blown head up Trump's ass; yes INDEED

[cwydro]

9. Yeah, sure, right.

All of us gay folk like kids.

Expected better from you.

18. Or, maybe Graham isn't gay, contrary to the rumors?

Perhaps he's actually a straight pedophile, who happens to have never married?

[cwydro]

20. I have nothing to say about pedophiles...let him go to jail if so.

I despise people equating gay people with pedophiles, which apparently many people here think is just fine and dandy.

[GoCubsGo]

26. Oh, I agree.

I think others here may believe it goes without saying, as well.

[GoCubsGo]

16. It most likely is multiple other things.

Like taking lots and lots of foreign money, human trafficking and/or pedophilia, and Gawd knows what else.

5. I yawn, you yawn, but will the S.C. Shitler base yawn?

I think not. If you brought bigots to the prom, you’ll live and die by what they deem is gender appropriate.

[cwydro]

12. Looks like bigotry is alive and well here on DU.

Wow, what a thread to wake up to.

Can't believe what I've read on this particular thread, though gay hate seems to be accepted here pretty regularly.

I remember when it wasn't this way.

[mercuryblues]

7. Republicans in SC know the rumors

They don't care for 1 main reason.

He isn't openly gay and votes against LBGQT rights.

[Tipperary]

8. "Especially if it involves homosexuality."

Wow, reading this here.

[Baitball Blogger]

11. I'm sorry. I'll amend.

I didn't know it was pejorative.

[essme]

10. I don't think it's about being "gay"

I think it's something serious-

[allnews]

13. I apologize

But what are you referring to? Has someone said they were going to expose something close to election?

[Baitball Blogger]

14. There is someone on Twitter who keeps saying he's waiting for the election to expose him.

And I went looking for more information today and came across this:

https://www.fitsnews.com/2020/06/05/is-lindsey-graham-about-to-have-a-problem/

[cwydro]

17. Wow, great link. "someone on twitter."

Anyone can say anything on twitter, but you are so hot to get Graham "outed" you believe it, right?

This seems to titillate you quite a bit huh?

This silly story came out some time ago. I don't care if Graham is gay or not, but sick to death of DUers showing their true colors when it comes to this subject.

If someone wants to "expose" him (because yeah all gay people should be "exposed) they would have already done so.

Smh.

[Baitball Blogger]

19. His tweets have been posted on DU several times.

I just don't recall his name.

And this is all political news.

[Baitball Blogger]

24. I am sorry that you're taking this information in this manner.

But this is a legitimate topic of interest for this newsgroup since it is political news.

[Baitball Blogger]

28. If you care to elaborate to question his credentials,

I'm willing to listen.

15. The poster was bringing out the old tired thing of Graham being gay.

Which then brings out the bigots who think gay people are pedophiles. Because, of course, anyone gay wants a kid. Disgusting crap that I really can't believe I'm reading here.

It's fucking ugly as shit, but apparently cool with most people here now.

[Tipperary]

23. I would not bother.

There are many here.

[cwydro]

27. Bookmarked.

[maxrandb]

29. Yeah, he's a racist asspickle

A fascist loving corrupt dipshit who uses his position to drum up bullshit criminal investigations into political rivals like we're a Third world country. He's a wimp and a coward. He's not a Tinpot Dictator, he's worse! He's the guy that kisses the Tinpot Dictator's ass and brings him subjects that he can murder, rape and imprison.

He's a fucking racist scum who doesn't have the guts to get his hands dirty, but he'll provide the rope.

He's been at the government teet for decades, while his state ranks last, or second to last in every category other than "would you kill yourself to get the fuck out of South Carolina"?

And... the real way to "get him" is to reveal he's gay?

No Thanks!

[Tipperary]

30. Good post.

[a la izquierda]

31. I could care less if he's gay.

I know for almost certainty he is (I’m close friends with a relative).
It’s his hypocrisy I find problematic.

[OnDoutside]

33. Maybe he adopted a son, like Matt Gaetz ?

[ProfessorGAC]

34. If It's Personal, Don't Care, And...

...I don't think it will have impact.
If it's professional wrongdoing, get it out now!
