    Does this hurt or help Lindsey’s re-election bid?

    Now the libs are attacking homosexuals? Gay shaming? Very intolerant people.

    Is there really anyone who didn't know Graham was gay?

    Wait, is it an open secret in DC that Lindsey Graham is in the closet?

    Also, why escorts for either Graham or Gillum? Why not have an actual partner?

    Kevin Spacey basically played a more powerful LG in House of Cards.

    Yep, folks have been saying that about Graham before he was elected to replace Strom Thurmond. I think one paper/pundit said that he was "too light in the loafers" to fill Thurmond's shoes.

    Could be why he's sucking up to Trump so much as he doesn't want to be outed by Don the Con.

    Edit: Here's an article back from 2001 about it:

    Yeah, just speaking for this liberal, I don't care at all if Graham is or is not gay. If he is gay, he could probably have a more honest life by coming out. But whatever. If he is gay, and has been anti-LGBT, that's not necessarily hypocritical, especially by today's hypocritical standards. He may well hate that part of himself and vote accordingly.

    What this liberal is interested in, however, is how any such revelation would play with South Carolina voters.

    He does remind me of Walton Goggins character in Vice Principals

    I have a huge problem if he does not have the cojones to admit it to his constituents. Or will not stop using continually his "preachings" as an excuse to deny Americans their rights.

    I don't care what you do, just don't be a hypocrite.

    If he came out it would probably actually help him. It’s 2020 people.

    The reason he doesn’t though is because he politically has to sign off on anti lgbtq legislation and can’t play both sides on that issue.

    His situation with Trump and Putin has always been one of the most fascinating behind the scenes mysteries of this Trump era. What did Trump say to Lindsay on the golf course that one day in 2017? What would LG do if he was outed and decided to turn the story on Trump?

    2021 South Carolina will help who how? He won 55+% his last election. Think about his electorate.

    Good luck with that.

    I meant help him politically on a national level and boost his overall popularity. In SC he needs every racist bigot to show up to vote for him if he wants to get re-elected there.

    He's now tied to Trump.

    There's no national aspirations anymore, he's doing an admirable job as McConnell's lapdog.

    at this point i just assume most republican politicians are closeted homersexuals.

    compare his comments about trump before the election to how he sucks up to him now (no pun intended).

    he is probably being blackmailed.
