Graham Said On Jan. 6 That Trump 'Went Too Far,' New Tapes Reveal

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Lo, more tapes of Trump toadies acknowledging for two seconds in the immediate aftermath of the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection that the attack was then-President Donald Trump’s fault.

During a CNN appearance on Tuesday, New York Times reporters Alex Burns and Jonathan Martin unveiled clips of their interviews with Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) on Jan. 6 in which the GOP senator firmly criticized Trump for fueling the rage that led to the insurrection by his supporters.

“He plays the TV game, and he went too far here,” Graham said, adding that Trump’s pre-insurrection rally at the Ellipse — during which the then-president railed against Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) and other Republicans who didn’t help him try to steal the 2020 election — “didn’t help.”

“He created a sense of revenge,” Graham said.

But they've since kissed and made up.

1. Trump reminded Lindsey of the blackmail videos, and Lindsey fell in line.

2. The second he got over his fright . . .

Sen. Graham and a bunch of others scurried right back to the former guy's toxic embrace.

Isn't it nice that the New York Times paid Alex Burns and Jonathan Martin to cover the news, and they were able to sit on the video of their interview with Sen. Graham for 16 months until they had a book to hawk? Burns and Martin knew what Graham had to say in the immediate aftermath of the failed insurrection, but did they report that when Graham voted not to remove Trump at the second impeachment? But that wouldn't have left them with any material for their book!

3. Presumably a coup without a mob invading the Capitol would have been 'just right' for Lindsey.

4. Lindsey has no doubt already booked a flight to Florida ...

in order to atone by the ritual kissing of Trump's saggy, cellulite-ridden ass.
