Graham tries to help Trump and McConnell bury the hatchet
By Alexander Bolton - 09/22/21 06:00 AM EDT

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) has told colleagues that former President Trump has conceded in recent private conversations that Sen. Mitch McConnell (Ky.) “helped” him during his four years in office, even as the former president rails against the Republican leader in public.

Two GOP senators told The Hill about the conversations Graham, who played golf with Trump over the weekend, has had with his GOP colleagues.

One GOP senator described Graham as trying to mend fences between the two most powerful Republicans in the country, who have publicly warred throughout 2021.


“Lindsey was with the president this last weekend. From what I understand Trump said something complimentary about Mitch,” said a GOP senator, who described Graham’s efforts to help bury the hatchet between McConnell and Trump.

Another senator confirmed that Trump conceded to Graham that McConnell had indeed helped him at key moments, even though Trump now bashes McConnell regularly in public statements.

Does anyone REALLY believe anything this POS Graham said. He is a top UNIPARTY player and keeps getting elected in SC because of Voter Fraud and a TOTAL Liar. TRUMP if ever accepted by the political BIG CLUB would turn on AMERICA just like McConnell, McCarthy, Graham and so forth. Problem TRUMP will never be accepted in the BIG CLUB and he has not realized it yet.

Graham is 66 years old and still doesn't know which way he's hangin'.

If it is clear to us the Big Club means trading public office for private profit I'm quite sure it is clear to Trump.

Unfortunately, and as we have seen until things change , anyone - and that means anyone - who seeks higher office must have the cooperation of these grifters to some degree. DC is their sandbox.

McConnell prefers a knife to your back.
