Delusional Lindsey Graham Blasted For Claiming Republicans Are The 'Tolerant' Party

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham appeared on Fox News this week and told one of the most outrageous and easily-debunked lies we've ever heard. Graham claimed that the Republican Party is far more "tolerant" than Democrats and that Republicans just want to let people live their lives without government interference. Nothing could be further from the truth, as Republicans are trying to legislate what you can do to your own body, and social media users were quick to pile on the delusional Senator. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what happened.

Lindsey Graham, Republican senator from South Carolina is coming in strong to try to win the award for Lie of the Year this week. I know we've only got, you know, a couple days left in the year at this point, but Lindsey Graham thought he would finish strong and he told what might be the most obvious and ridiculous and stupid lie of the entire year of 2023 a year. That included, by the way, all of George Santos lies. Here's what happened. Lindsey Graham went on Fox News this week and claimed that it is in fact the Republican Party that is the party of tolerance. The Republican party doesn't wanna mess with your life at all. Like, we leave you alone. You leave us alone. We're good to go. Lindsey Graham said, let me read you this, this is what Lindsey Graham said on live tv, on Fox News this week. The bottom line is conservatives are tolerant. We are kind of get outta your business. You leave me alone, I'll leave you alone.

Yes. That, that is what the Republican Party is known for. Just being like, yeah, you guys do what you want. We're not gonna interfere, right? We're, we're not gonna legislate your life down to the most minute detail, right? Um, no, that, that is, that is literally the only thing Republicans can do other than cut taxes. They regulate your daily life. Oh, you, you, your transgender, sorry. We're gonna make it illegal for you to get the, the medications you need or the surgeries you need. Yeah. We're that deep into your life. Texas, other southern states as well, actually have legal limits on how many sex toys you can buy. Like you are legislating down to that detail. And you, Lindsay, you're telling me like, oh no, we, Hey, we just let you do your thing. You literally do not ask any woman in the United States how that conservative stay outta your business thing is going for you.

Now, obviously, the folks on social media picked this up and they had quite a lot to say to Lindsey Graham, uh, here's one. This is from Michael Van DeMar who says, uh, in response, obviously to Lindsey Grant's comment, unless you're gay or transgender or have a vagina or wanna read certain books, or do, do do, another user said, can I have my bodily autonomy back? And another one said, uterus would like a word with you. L-G-B-T-Q folk would like a word with you. Libraries and public schools would like a word with you. You raging, filthy liar. So the public understands, right, that Lindsey Graham is not a member of a party that just wants to leave you alone and let you live your life. But the reason Lindsey Graham even said this comment was 'cause the folks at Fox and Friends were talking about a law in New York that says, if you operate a business on a

Publicly owned, as in you don't own the property, uh, uh, uh, parcel, you gotta be open on the week, you gotta be open seven days a week. You know, Chick-fil-A we're looking at you. And Lindsey Graham said, if you can have a Satan Club in high school, surely they can close on Sunday because they believe it is the Lord's Day. We're not going to give into this. This is God's chicken. Like you're so tolerant that you're getting all worked up about chicken, like mediocre fast food, chicken. This is ridiculous. But no, I agree. I mean, the, the town I live in, the only restaurant by the way that we have in our little bitty airport is Chick-fil-A. So if you're flying on a Sunday, guess what?
