Graham: I would not serve in Trump's Cabinet
Source: The Hill
BY MALLORY SHELBOURNE - 01/07/18 11:29 AM EST
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said Sunday that he would not serve in President Trumps Cabinet.
Graham answered no when NBCs Chuck Todd asked if he would serve in Trumps Cabinet should the president ask him to do so. We will not be hearing the name Secretary Graham on any Cabinet agency, Todd followed up. You got it, Graham told Meet the Press.
Graham was a frequent critic of Trump during the Republican primary, but has shifted his tone over the course of the last year.
The South Carolina lawmaker has heaped praise on Trump for his foreign policy, including Trumps decision to de-certify the Iran nuclear deal.

(24,695 posts)you vote in favor of a man and his team to take down the american public with his and your right wing fascist agenda, and you have also sent a letter to charge a whistle blower of a crime that has to do with his dossier , which has been verified in many parts, while at the same time you have attacked the DOJ and the FBI , and you have in essence supported the same man that has from all appearances committed treason, you have NOT sent letters to 21 people that have been implicated in treason, so in essence there Graham you are in the cabinet .....................and you also are a traitor.......................you signed that letter from Cotton to circumvent a former sitting president and what he is / was allowed to do in the Constitution----------------your still a traitor

(3,363 posts)I can't take this obsequious worship of Trump anymore. It's mind-boggling. Graham said he loves working with Trump, loves his company, he's not crazy, and had an amazing 2017.
These people are deranged! Ugh! I'm ready to jump off a bridge just to escape the insanity in this world.
