Wouldn't have been a circus if they hadn't nominated a black out drunk rapist who cries and throws a tantrum when he gets caught. Literally.

I hope whatever scandal he’s been hiding is exposed. I really think he's deflecting from himself.
Wishing for karma instead!

And he was just as bad on Wednesday as well. But didn’t stomp off.

A straight line for as long as it took to reach a coastline, and then about an hour more straight ahead from there.

That would have put him in the right place as far as I'm concerned.

Lindsay seems star-struck by him, or he has a man-crush on him. He's always looking for opportunities to protest how badly he thinks Kavanaugh was treated.

How’d you jump to homophobia?

You realize it’s a term used in the old south when people would faint from the heat

one wonders why people are being so protective of a hypocritical, holier-than-thou, closeted homosexual congressman who, allegedly, has had numerous ILLEGAL sexual encounters with male escorts, that have come forward?

have the effect of shielding Graham from insults related to his, alleged, sexual behavior.

You were specifically complaining about the use of the term "va puhs" which, to me, would seem to be more insulting to people from the South, rather than gays.
