Woah.

When MTG says what you did is "irresponsible, dangerous & unhinged" ...

That may have been Graham's purpose, all along. The QOP now seems to have, as its main policy, simply stopping anything President Biden attempts to accomplish. They would rather have the talking point that "Biden lost Ukraine" than to actually do anything useful to prevent that from happening.

I think #RCT should become the new hashtag. Our answer to Let's Go Brandon, and it's not even a giggling schoolchild way to be naughty. It's short, and pithy, and if we abbreviate it to RCT specifically instead of spelling it out, it should beat most filters.

Hell, we could probably fool some into using it by saying it's a clever misspelling of CRT to get around anti-Conservative filters. :lol:

Lindsey Graham, fighting a Fulton County grand jury subpoena, says his post-election calls with Secretary Raffensperger actually “helped him decide to vote to certify Joe Biden as President.”

And no the armed mob who broke in and almost killed us all didn't influence that vote a bit.

Graham knew by the time his vote was called that voting to object was not gonna look good so being Lindsey Graham he flipped like a pancake.

Sure they did…after he realized Raffensperger wasn’t going to do what he wanted.
