He wasn't when Vance and Trump ganged up on Zelensky in that White House press conference. 3

Yeah, that was disappointing at the time. Possibly Graham was having more issues at the time with Trump licking Putin’s arse and trying to get Zelensky to do the same with Trump to keep him sweet, but I agree that he should have stood up to Trump and Vance there. Ironically the guy who kicked it off, MGT’s husband and her are now anti-Trump! Overall he was one of the biggest US backers of Ukraine though and said to Trump - lose in Ukraine and lose Taiwan (and all of the chips Trump prizes).

I'll remember him as someone who ultimately lacked the courage of his convictions though - failure to stand up to Trump with that Zelensky stunt and failure to oppose Trump over 6th January (I think he initially said something about being "done" with Trump). Not really that much different from pretty much all Republicans though.
badgerx16 Posted 6 hours ago Posted 6 hours ago The petulant man-baby has a new target - the Falklands. Argentina have started ramping up their rhetoric over sovereignty, ( strangely, since work started on exploiting oil fields near the islands ), and Donnie is thought to be pivoting towards supporting his mate, President Milei, in retaliation for the UK not supporting the war with Iran. 1

It’ll be interesting if Trump brownosers the DT and Express carry on or stick up for our veterans. Not as if Trump Bone Spurs hadn't had a pop at the Afghan vets. Mail has become more cynical about him so less of a pivot. Problem for Reform if Trump and most likely Hegseth and Vance (who are driving it) go down this line with public opinion which is already sliding away. Edited 4 hours ago by Gloucester Saint
