3:50Now PlayingRepublican Senator Lindsey Graham appeared on Sean Hannity's Fox News show earlier this week to issue an ominous warning to members of his party who want to move forward without Trump. Graham told them that if they erase Trump, then Graham will erase THEM! It isn't exactly clear what this threat means, but Graham himself is about as threatening as an old southern grandma, so Republicans probably shouldn't waste their time being scared of him. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham issued an ominous threat to the entire Republican party on an a, during an appearance on Sean Hannity's program. This week, we're Lindsey Graham said, quote, to try to erase Donald Trump from the Republican party is insane. And the people who try to erase him are going to wind up getting erased. That's right. Folks coming this summer 2021, Lindsay grim is the eraser. Yeah. Lindsay Graham, you are honest to God, the least threatening human being in the entire United States. There is nothing intimidating about you or you issue these threats while sounding like an old decrepit Southern grandma. That's how threatening you are. And I know because I've, I've had old decrepit Southern grandmas, I love them dearly, but you basically have the same presence that they had. They're not intimidating. They say wild and crazy things. Sometimes you just laugh it off. Oh you.
And that's the way the world is looking at you. Lindsey Graham, nobody's taking you seriously. Nobody cares what you have to say, but you still go out there. You make these threats, like you're some kind of big Billy bad-ass and you're going to go out there and erase members of the Republican party. What does that even mean, Lindsey? Are you saying you're going to go and kill these people, like erase them. I mean, if so, I would think that constitutes a threat against the life of your fellow Republican members of Congress and should be investigated because that is a, uh, that's a pretty serious thing to say there, Lindsay, even if you joking, even though you physically couldn't carry out these threats, you still made the threat. No, no. Maybe that's something the FBI wants to look at. You just threatened to erase people and you know, in mob talk, I think we all know what that means.
I mean, you may as well have come out and said, look, if they try to go against Trump, they can be sleeping with the fishes rate. I mean, good God, Lindsey. But here's the thing Lindsey Graham has gone from. If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed and we will deserve it too. If you go against Trump, I swear on my life. I will make you pay. And that's, what's so crazy about this too, because you have plenty of other Republicans who have obviously also devoted themselves to Donald Trump, but they're not out there saying like, we're going to frigging a, you, you will be gone. Nobody will remember you. Your children will live in fear. Like what in the hell is going on with Lindsey? Graham? This is insane, but Hey, that's pretty much the entirety of the Republican party these days. Lindsay, if you want to go to bat for Donald Trump, go to bat for Donald Trump.
You want to lead your party down this ridiculous path, go ahead and lead them. You think Donald Trump's going have your back. When the chips are down and you need someone in your corner, go ahead and keep believing that you've seen the way he uses people and then discards discards them. If anyone is going to be erased from anything it's you who will eventually be erased from Donald Trump's inner circle, the second he no longer find you useful. So just remember that little piece of advice as you go forward, pledging your love and devotion to Donald.
