Graham invokes McCain in latest call to take out Putin

South Carolina- time to inspect your voting machines.

The Hill:
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) invoked the late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) in his latest call for Russian President Vladimir Putin to be assassinated.

Asked during a press conference on Wednesday if he stands by his call for Putin to be assassinated, Graham said “yeah, I hope he will be taken out one way or the other,” before claiming that McCain would agree if he were alive to witness Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

“I don’t care how they take him out. I don’t care if we send him to the Hague and try him. I just want him to go. Yes, I’m on record,” Graham said. “And if John McCain were here, he’d be saying the same thing, I think.”

Graham and McCain were longtime friends while serving in Congress together, a relationship the South Carolina Republican has called upon in the years after McCain’s death. Conservative pundit and the daughter of the late senator, Meghan McCain, however, has knocked Graham in the past for discussing her father.

In October, the younger McCain said Graham “may consider himself a member of my family, but he is not and hasn’t been for a very long time,” after the South Carolina senator discussed who was invited to her father’s funeral in 2018. more here

  1. It’s hard to get excited, or even care just a little about a cadre of people you find loathsome. But all of them never fail to disappoint and all come off looking bad in this exchange.

    Meghan needs to figure out that Miss Lindsey and her father were friends long before the time she thought she became relevant, and their friendship has nothing to do with her, nor does he need her permission to miss his friend.

    Of course, it never dawned on her that Jared and Ivanka were at the funeral to pay their respects, that their intentions were honorable and reverent. No, the absolute worst of intentions are always ascribed to actions of those you don’t like. Knee-jerk outrage is always the default position instead of a more charitable disposition.

  2. This is all smoke and mirrors to distract the fact that they passed another 2700 page spending bill. Hidden in the new bill was the the ability to strip the rights of 2nd amendment states. As well as more funding to poison more people with the JAB.

  4. Looks like the Masterminds are dreaming of another coup. This one will be to remove Putin and replace him with a WEF/Soros approved figurehead. Piece of cake. They’ll be welcomed with open arms and cheers from the people. Joe Biden, Commander in Chief Supreme, will win WW3 without firing a shot. He will be awarded the NobelPeace Prize, the Congressional Medal of Freedom and have a street named after him in Moscow.

    He will be re-elected by acclamation.

  5. You know who’s as bad as Miss Lindsey, maybe even worse? Dan Crenshaw. He can’t wait to see shit glow in the dark. He’s posting justification to go to war with Russia on twitter and Insatgram and he’ll have 1700 responses all telling him to fuck off. I don’t think he reads his own accounts.
    Biden sending weapon of there might have done the trick.

  6. Crenshaw provides us a nice reminder that although prior military service is a feather in your cap, it is not the be-all-end-all wrt political competency, as evidenced by the likes of Buttigieg, Kerry, and Blumenthal.

  7. OK, fine, I won’t knock Sen McCain for what he did as a POW. I will pile on for his political idiocy. Does Lindsey occasionally do something good for the country? Yes. Overall, is he good for the country? Losing side of the coinflip. A few times good, many times bad. Fence straddler. Doesn’t have a consistent philosophy other than “can’t we all just get along?”
