My
joy is transcendent and luminous. Watching the Trump administration
implode in a series of puerile tantrums is a wondrous thing for which
words barely suffice.
But
even in days stuffed with the petulant antics of Donald Trump, Mitch
McConnell, William Barr and Rudy Giuliani, one support player
reliably steps forward and—however temporarily—steals the
spotlight..
Yes,
I speak of the senator from South Carolina, Lindsey Graham. Ol'
Lindsey is never, ever shy about opening his mouth, and sometimes
even thinks before doing so. Thankfully, that was not the case
Thursday.
Graham
again entertained the hell out of me by issuing an indignant
hissy fit about the Democrats and their 'closed' impeachment inquiry.
I mean, seriously Lindsey? You're in a snit because the Democrats did
something without inviting you and your fellow Republicans along?
Aw. Hey--weren't you supposed to be giving Charles Koch a hand-job or something?
I
guess those big, bad Democrats plum forget how open and transparent
your boss and his henchmen have been. You know, the whole ignoring
subpoenas thing and the obfuscation and the cover-ups and the lies
and the threats.
And that picture of you posing with the posterboard explaining point by point how respectful Republicans were of Bill Clinton while they attempted to impeach him for lying about a blow job?
Yeah. Sure.
Sorry Lindsey, but I was alive in 1998. So were lots of other people. That was a political smear. Character assassination. A hatchet job. If that's the context for impeachment, what's appropriate for Donald Trump?
A firing squad?
Yeah. Sure.

Come
on, Lindsey. I'm sure this plays really well at Fox for the high
school drop-outs who thought it'd be fun to turn the federal
government into a reality TV-styled source of entertainment.
But
to the majority of us who didn't vote for the Trump-whore, it is clear you've spent far too long in the
Republican whine cellar.
Sober
up.
