Lindsey Graham Pitches A Hissy Fit During Interview: Democrats ‘Went From Joy To Trump Is Hitler!’

Delicate little daffodil Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) is furious that Democrats are suggesting former president Donald Trump is a fascist who wants to rule as an authoritarian if he manages to win the 2024 election.

Speaking with ABC News host Jonathan Karl on “This Week,” Graham worked himself in a lather about comments made by former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly that Trump is a wannabe fascist.

“Three weeks before the election, you’re calling basically Trump, Hitler, a fascist is not going to resonate,” Graham whined. “What happened to joy on the Democratic side? They went from joy to now Trump is Hitler!”

“I think General Kelly’s criticisms are not based on facts,” he added. “I think it’s emotional. It’s sad. And it’s not going to matter.”

Karl pushed back on Graham’s ranting.

“Now, General Mattis, Secretary Mattis is somebody you called a role model for the concept of duty, honor, and country. Can you really do this now?”

“I mean, I could go through all the good things you’ve said about all three of those [generals].”

That enraged Graham even more.

“That was before they weighed in and turned America upside down, using rhetoric that’s dangerous and is off base! Okay, if you want to call him Hitler.”

“They didn’t call him Hitler,” Karl corrected.

“What they did is they’re trying to scare Americans that this man can’t fix the problems we need fixed. I don’t think he’s a fascist. I thought he was a very strong president at a time we needed a strong president.”

A strong president when we needed that, huh, Lindsey? Ironically, that is the same thing they said about Adolf Hitler.

Lindsey Graham Just Made J.D. Vance’s ‘Cat Ladies’ Problem Even Worse

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) tried Sunday to defend GOP vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance for comments he made about the Democratic Party being composed of “childless women” who own cats, but only managed to widen a gender gap that could well cost Republicans the 2024 election.

Appearing on “Face the Nation,” Graham was asked by host Robert Costa, “Senator, I understand your focus on Vice President Harris, the presumptive Democratic nominee, but there are also many Americans who do not have children. You’re also not just a senator, you’re a political strategist, you work informally with former president Trump and so many Republicans. You have a political mind, is it a mistake for Senator Vance to keep talking about Americans who don’t have children when it comes to a national campaign?”

Graham replied, “Right, yeah. I don’t have children. But I’m going to vote for J.D. and Trump because I think we’ll be safer and more prosperous and more secure. I want to end the Biden-Harris debacle.”

“You know you should never say anything to hurt anybody’s feelings, but when you look at all these interviews by J.D., but he was talking about how the Democratic party has abandoned the traditional family.”

Minutes later, Graham added, “So this idea of trying to marginalize J.D. and make him some kind of bad person is not going to work. He’s not a bad person, he’s a good person. He has served his country honorably and is going to help president Trump win.”

The Democratic Party has abandoned the traditional family? Well then let’s take a look at the GOP.

Lindsey Graham is a 69-year-old man who has never been married, never been seen on a date with a woman, and supports a disgraced former president who has cheated on all three of his wives and slept with porn stars instead of being at home caring for his children. Oh, and that same failed ex-president has also bragged that he gets off on kissing women against their will and grabbing them “by the pussy.” How’s that for family values?

Graham, Trump, and Vance are disgusting hypocrites who should be shunned by polite society. They’re a cancer on this country and one of the main reasons so many Americans are infested with noxious lies and gaslighting that result from the bigotry and hatred emanating from the Republican Party.

WATCH Lindsey Graham Get ‘Relentlessly’ Booed At Trump Campaign Victory Celebration

While Saturday’s GOP presidential primary in South Carolina was a big victory for failed one-term former president Donald Trump, it wound up being a very public humiliation for Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC).

During a victory celebration in the Palmetto State, Mediaite reports, Trump called Graham to the podium to make some remarks.

 He introduced Lindsey Graham as “a little bit further left than some people on this stage.” Loud boos broke out in the room and kept up as Trump tried to calm them down.

“No, no. Remember,” Trump said, but the boos continued. “I love him, he’s a good man. Come up here Lindsey,” Trump said.

Social media users couldn’t resist commenting on the rude reception Graham received in his home state.

WATCH: Lindsey Graham EXPLODES When Asked A Question By Reporter During Trip To Israel

During a visit to Israel on Monday, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) had a full-scale meltdown when a reporter from right-wing network Newsmax asked him a question about Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI).

At a press conference, Newsmax’s Daniel Cohen began by thanking Graham for his support of Israel, but then asked, “And I’d like to ask any Democrat senator here that would like to speak to Rashida Tlaib. She still has a tweet up condemning Israel for a hospital attack.”

Graham replied, “We are here together, not to talk about the problems at home, which are many.”

Cohen pressed: “It’s a question.”

That’s when Graham grew angry.

“You’re not going to screw this up!” Graham shouted.

Cohen: “I’m not trying to screw it up.”

That only made Graham angrier, leading him to suggest Cohen should be removed.

“Get this guy out of here!”

Graham then pounded the podium and declared:

“I’m an American. And I believe in free speech. I don’t believe what the squad has to say at all. But I came here with Democrats and Republicans to let everybody in the world know.”

“Don’t judge every Democrat by the squad, and don’t judge every Republican by some of the things you hear.”

A few minutes later, Graham offered an apology to the reporter: “And I’m sorry, my friend. I probably shouldn’t have said it, but my nerves are raw right now.”

Here’s the video:

Lindsey Graham Tries To Defend Trump From Indictment And Steps Into A Steaming Pile Of Irony

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) went on Fox “News” Monday evening and did his best impression of Henny Penny, declaring that the sky was definitely falling if disgraced former president Donald Trump wound up being indicted in the state of Georgia for trying to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

Appearing with Fox host Jesse Watters, Graham whined that the legal problems facing Trump were “unfair.”

“The American people can decide whether they want him to be president or not,” Graham declared. “This should be decided at the ballot box, not a bunch of liberal jurisdictions trying to put the man in jail.”

As HuffPost notes, many couldn’t help but wonder if Graham fully appreciated the irony of his words.

Users on … Twitter said deciding Trump’s fate at the ballot box was “sorta the point here.”
