The ties I wore were far more classy than anything he wears - not solid red but blue threads woven in provided interesting contrast. I got a spot of pesto on my Oscar de la Renta red tie, which happened after rump started appearing everywhere in that ridiculous red tie, so I donated it to charity. I’ll never wear a solid or semisolid red tie again.

I always liked blue better, as far back as when my age was in low single-digits. I think the first time my parents asked me what color I like best (answer: blue, not pink), I was four. Maybe because the Disney Sleeping Beauty was depicted in a blue gown?

People wouldn't say it unless they meant it as an insult, and you know that's true.

There's plenty of reasons to despise Graham, but his sexual orientation is not one of them.

Mainly Lake and MTG. I do not see trump wanting a female second in command, no matter what GQP ops want. I believe Lindsay has been promised VP slot. He is going overboard for it, knowing after so many lost attempts he will never be President. Can you imagine a SOTU with two orangutans and a jellyfish sitting up on that stage, representing the greatest, most amazing Democracy in the world, that we want all countries to strive for.
Send cash to Lindsay. Really????? I’m Afraid we do have that level of stupid. Throw some cash to Gaetz, MTG, Boobert and Soros, they ALL promise to get it to trump.
Lindsay is the biggest political Joke of all time. He can not get away without some orange tint residing up trumps ass 24/7.

John MaCain to return from the dead just to beat the crap out of his treasonous fake friend Lindsey.

After hanging on to McCain's coat tails for years, making believe he is a friend, Graham befriends a psychopathic traitor, and looks now like he yearns to be trump's twisted doppelganger.

At least one former member of Congress has repeatedly said Lindsey is a closeted shoplifter.

I'm sure Trump has more on Lindsey, including his relationship to foreign agents and the money he has been "given" over at least the Trump years.

I just saw this clip and frankly, could barely believe it. Bad enough Graham has touted the 'all things' Trump line but now he's trying look like Trump?

But it's not a cult, people.

Majorie Taylor Greene compared TheDon to Mandela and Jesus yesterday. Persecuted, proscecuted and defamed. Even crucified.

But it's not a cult, people.

What this actually says to me is that the Lindsey Graham and Marjorie Taylor Greenes of the world are up to their eyebrows in the corruption and muck. If Donald Trump goes down, they go down.

Complicity writ large!
