Why Is Lindsey Graham In More Legal Trouble Than Others??

[Mac1958]

I don't think Trump's essentially threatening personal destruction for anyone who doesn't "bend a knee" is that unusual. LBJ would effectively make a senator unable to advance legislation if he didn't "play ball." Nixon was infamous. WJC had a wall defended bitterly by people like Brazille and Hillary.

But those three people lost their power to destroy when they lost public support. And they all payed a price, although arguably Hillary paid Slick's price.

Yeah, no doubt that this isn't exactly unique in the annals of politics. The difference with Trump is that he is so ham-handed, childish and mob-like about it.

Standard behavior for him. A walking caricature.

yeah, and he ran on being the "anti-establishment candidate," but the irony is that he personally is the establishment of his wing of the party. So Lindsey is in a "heapahtrubble" if he made the calls to Ga after Trump asked him to. He's not going to be charged by the DOJ, but it's not a "good look" to be attacking the GA gop for a failed candidate.
