Bill Kristol says Lindsey Graham is sucking up to Trump b/c he wants to be Secretary of State

Graham's latest brown-nosing is burbling about Trump's "spectacular" golf course:




Trump International Golf Club is a spectacular golf course. Great day of fun playing with @POTUS @realDonaldTrump.



Comment from the Weekly Standard's Kristol:




Man, Lindsey really wants to be Secretary of State.



And from former Government Ethics director Walter Shaub:




Et tu, @LindseyGrahamSC? Et tu? It's ok that you had fun golfing, but the presidency's not supposed to be for profit (so.. ix-nay on the pectactular-say, kay-oay?)



And from Eric Boehlert:




does Trump let you carry his bag?

If he can survive as Trump's SecState until Trump goes to prison, he thinks he will have a pretty good shot at the top job in 2020/24.

to purchase a private detective and destroy this clown.

But, were democrats and don't do stuff like that, of course. While he ran around going after a President Clinton for lying about a affair.

Let me know when we are ready to destroy. Will pitch in.
