For whatever reason, former President Donald Trump persists in keeping around RINO warmonger Lindsey Graham. That includes sometimes bringing him to rallies, particularly ones in Sen. Graham’s home state of South Carolina, which is something that went quite poorly on Saturday.
There, Trump introduced Sen. Graham to the crowd, and when Graham stepped up, the crowd started booing him remorselessly. Twitter personality DC Draino, posting about the incident, said (punctuation added for ease of reading):
“Lindsey Graham was introduced at Trump’s rally in his home state of South Carolina & the crowd viciously booed him. Humiliating. There are many reasons why they did, but #1 is due to his support of the War in Ukraine. We’re done with NeoCon Warmongers”

Sen. Graham has been particularly effusive in his praise of the Ukraine, virulent in his stated hatred of Russia, and constant in his expressed desire to ratchet up the war in Ukraine by getting more and more involved.
For example, in late May, Sen. Graham said that the Ukrainian war effort reminds Americans of “our better selves in America. There was a time in America that we were this way, fighting to the last person, we were going to be free or die.”
Sen. Graham also said that using American money to buy weapons to kill Russians is the best money America has ever spent, telling Ukrainian president Zelensky, “And the Russians are dying. Itʼs the best money we ever spent,” though he seems to have said, “and the Russians are down.”
The Russian state media has just noticed this meeting from a few days ago between Zelensky & Senator Lindsey Graham, where the latter allegedly says, "And the Russians are dying. Itʼs the best money we ever spent," though he seems to have said, "and the Russians are down." pic.twitter.com/npXHCjPHUo

Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev, commenting on Sen. Graham the warmonger’s remarks, said, “The old fool Senator Lindsey Graham said that the United States has never spent money so successfully as on the murder of Russians. He shouldn’t have done that.”
Sen. Graham, long suspected of being a homosexual, has also demanded the US getter ever more involved in sending more and more advanced weapons to the Ukrainians. For example, in February of 2023, he said that America needs to send F-16 fighters to the Ukrainians, a step which would be a major provocation and all but useless given Russia’s air defense systems.
Speaking on that, he said, “Let me just stress this: How can you call this war by Russia a crime against humanity … and not give the victim of their crime against humanity the defensive weapons they need to stop the crime? So, we need to do two things quickly: make Russia a state sponsor of terrorism under U.S. law, which would make it harder for China to give weapons to Russia, and we need to start training Ukrainian pilots on the F-16 now.”
So, MAGA detests Sen. Graham because of his neocon proclivities and because his stark opposition to Russia makes no sense given Putin’s Christian worldview, reactionary war on wokeness within Russia’s borders, and willingness to stand up to the leftists we so despise. Trump needs to ditch Graham and his neocon worldview if he’s to maintain the full support of his base headed into the 2024 primary. Otherwise, they’re just be a cacophony of booing, as seen in the video.
