Lindsey Graham Is Selective About Which Liars To Believe
On Sunday's Face The Nation, Senator Lindsey Graham said he wants to hold a hearing after remarks made by Andrew McCabe, the former acting FBI Director who claimed Rod Rosenstein was so worried about Trump's capacity to do the job he wanted to invoke the 25th amendment.
This is a 180-degree turnaround from the 2016 Republican primaries, when Graham told CNN that Trump was a jackass after he attacked John McCain's service.
Fast-forward to the present and Sen. Graham has been acting like Trump's Minister of Justice since he now took leadership of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
He's out there sending the message to Trump that disparaging his own part of the government and the entire Congress to call for a phony national emergency to steal funds that were not earmarked by the legislature to build his monstrosity of a vanity wall is perfectly legal and normal. It is not.
McCabe and Rosenstein were right to be wary of Trump's mental capacity as well, and within reason to wonder if he was acting on behalf of a hostile foreign government instead of his own.
Trump created a nightmare scenario within the bureau and the DOJ by constantly and publicly attacking his own Attorney General Jeff Sessions and the entire Russia investigation.
What would anyone think?
