Graham hits moderate GOP senators fooled by Biden trickery: ‘You look like a f*cking idiot now’
June 26, 2021 | Vivek Saxena
In an unexpectedly profane outburst Friday, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., slammed President Joe Biden for his dirty-handed, treacherous games.
At issue was the so-called “bipartisan” infrastructure deal that Republican Sens. Mitt Romney, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Bill Cassidy and Rob Portman had negotiated with the president and five Democrat senators.
The purpose of working with Democrats had been to convince them to settle with a smaller, fairer “bipartisan” bill versus the grandiose reconciliation bill full of disastrous Democrat goodies that they’d originally been seeking.
While Graham was reportedly among those Republicans who originally expressed some support for the bill, that support evaporated faster than a drop of water in the desert once he learned that it was all a ruse by Biden and Senate Democrats.
In a statement Thursday, the president explained that he’d only sign the bill if the Senate also passes a separate reconciliation bill that’s full of Democrat goodies. If that were to happen, Democrats would get everything they originally wanted, in addition to the veneer of “bipartisanship.” Republicans, meanwhile, would get nothing.
