Lindsey Graham tries weird new pivot after Donald Trump loses Electoral College

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

We’ve already seen Lindsey Graham completely turn into a different person when he stopped latching onto the late John McCain and started latching onto Donald Trump instead. We’ve been wondering what Graham would do once Trump was off the stage, and Graham needed to find a new way to remain relevant.

Interestingly enough, Lindsey Graham is now basically admitting tonight that Joe Biden won the election. In fact Graham is even going so far as to voice support for multiple Biden cabinet picks, while also offering support for some (but not all) of the names being floated for Biden’s Attorney General. So what’s happening here?

This isn’t necessarily surprising. Trump will be gone within weeks, and the Republican Party has no clear remaining leadership or direction at this point. Yet Lindsey Graham is the kind of sucker fish who has to try to latch onto somebody in order to keep himself relevant. Is Graham really looking at trying to latch onto President Biden?

Even if so, Biden knows better than anyone that Graham can’t be trusted. Graham is as self centered as he is psychologically unstable. And considering the felony election tampering that Graham just got caught committing, he belongs in prison, not in the Senate. Come to think of it, perhaps Graham is now trying to buddy up to Biden in the mistaken belief that it’ll keep him from being criminally prosecuted. In any case, Graham was always going to selfishly move on from Trump the minute Trump’s defeat was cemented.
