In reply to the discussion: Sen. Graham Blames FBI For Trump Campaign's 'Improper' Russian Contacts [View all]Power 2 the People
(2,437 posts)28. I think Graham has two main reasons for becoming Trump's best friend
1. He knows his partner in crime and protector John McCain will not be around much longer. McCain had a lot of pull in Republican and military circles that allowed Graham to occasionally go off the right-wing reservation. Lindsey needs an ally to back up his grandstanding.
2. Trump is a cruel man. He probably told Graham that he will out him as a gay man. In South Carolina,being anti-Trump and gay would surely be the end of his lucrative political career.
