Graham to self-quarantine after Mar-a-Lago trip

Source: The Hill


BY JORDAIN CARNEY - 03/12/20 04:33 PM EDT

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) is self-quarantining after a trip to Mar-a-Lago where Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro was also present.

Graham, according to a statement from his office, “has no recollection of direct contact” with Bolsonaro, who is being monitored for the coronavirus, or his spokesman, who has tested positive.

“However, in an abundance of caution and upon the advice of his doctor, Senator Graham has decided to self-quarantine awaiting the results of a coronavirus test,” the statement from Graham’s office said.

. . .

Graham is the third senator to self-quarantine. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) announced on Sunday that while he was healthy, he has self-quarantined after being exposed to a person who tested positive for the coronavirus.

My intention was that Graham was bowing down.

I didn't think of the sexual implication and I apologize. I don't like stereotypical insults.

Anyway, fuck 'em both.

Easy to get 2/3rd's with all these Rus-publicans quarantining themselves.

I'm guessing dear Lindsey had his head so far in there that it would have been impossible to inhale and "nasty" stuff.

(I know, I truly am SO sorry for that visual, but then again, there must be something, right?)

......for everyday he doesn't show up for work. If he doesn't bring a doctor's note saying
he was really sick, then I'm afraid we'll have to let him go.

How many Americans will hear those words in the next few weeks?

....... can we expect to see the number go to the promised ZERO?

So Senator Graham why are YOU self-quarantine for a HOAX?

If it's not a HOAX. Get out there and tell the Trump cultist the truth.

Said that everyone has the wrong idea about quarantining. That its not just about staying home (and infecting your family and neighbors), it means isolation. Just you.
