One born every minute

Nicole Wallace distills Trumpism to its addictive essence:

Playing the clip of Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) from an Axios interview over the weekend, MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace said that “listening to him talk about harnessing the magic is like listening to a drug addict talk about taking the good parts out of cocaine.” Graham told Axios that he wants to try and find the good parts of Trumpism and lift those up and keep the “dark side” away.

Even at the risk of bringing his party down on his head. And our republic down on ours.

Graham described former President Donald Trump as a cross between Jesse Helms, Ronald Reagan and P.T. Barnum.

“It’s just this bigger than life deal,” Graham said of Trump. “He could make the Republican Party something that nobody else I know can make it. He can make it bigger, he can make it stronger, he can make it more diverse and he also could destroy it.”

There is nothing left of Graham but Spanish moss hanging off Trump’s withered trunk. Graham was never so crude as Jesse Helms nor as folksy as Reagan, just the sucker born every minute.
