Lindsey Graham Just Smashed The Blue Wave
If there is such a thing as a blue wave, Lindsey Graham just smashed it and scattered the wave to the winds.
“Boy, you all want power! God I hope you never get it. I hope the American people can see through this sham, that you knew about it and you held it. You had no intention to protect Dr. Ford. She is as much a victim as you are,” Graham shouted to his Democratic colleagues on the Senate Judiciary Committee during a contentious hearing into whether Judge Brett Kavanaugh had sexually assaulted Dr. Christine Blasey Ford when they were teenagers.
Lindsey’s outburst, less than a month after crying at John McCain's memorial about being more bipartisan in the future, poignantly emasculated the leaderless Democratic Party. He gives the Republican Party a one-two punch teamed with the political savvy communicator Donald Trump.
If Democrats have any hope in gaining that power Graham is praying to God to prevent them from obtaining, they will have to select a point man with the energy and take no prisoners approach that Trump and Graham display. A point person who will go toe to toe with Graham and Trump. A street brawler who does not mind mixing it up with the GOP. Perhaps Nina Turner and Symone Sanders. Two political operatives who are not scared to speak up and are quick on their toes.
