Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) lambasted fellow Republicans crossing party lines to support Vice President Kamala Harris Sunday, asking, "What the hell are you doing?"

Why it matters: Graham's rebuke comes as several prominent Republicans, some of whom worked in former President Trump's White House, have lined up behind the Democratic ticket or have vowed they will not support the GOP nominee in his third quest for the presidency.

Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), who joined Harris on the campaign trail, and her father, former Vice President Dick Cheney, are two GOP stalwarts who ditched partisan affiliations to back the vice president, warning of dangers they believe Trump poses.

What he's saying: Graham, in a testy back-and-forth with NBC News' Kristen Welker on "Meet the Press," questioned why Republicans are supporting the candidate he considers "the most radical nominee in the history of American politics."

Graham asked: "What are you doing? You are trying to convince me that Donald Trump's rhetoric is the danger to this country?"

He continued, "The danger to this country is the policies of Biden and Harris ... I can't take four more years of this crap."

Zoom in: Graham was questioned about Retired U.S. Army Gen. Mark Milley's characterization of Trump as "a fascist to the core" in journalist Bob Woodward's forthcoming book, "War."

Graham, who has previously praised Milley, said he thinks Trump's former top general is wrong.

"General Milley, you have a right to your opinion, but I don't fear Donald Trump," he said. "I fear what's going on in the world today. If you want the world to stay on fire, vote for her."

What a whiny baby!

What are they doing? They are taking BACK their party from loons like you.

[surfered]

1. Uh, putting country first...being patriotic. Maybe you've forgotten.

[PortTack]

4. This!!

[TheBlackAdder]

25. And that 👍

[D23MIURG23]

55. Graham has never been anything more than a snake in the grass. He's never had any patriotism.

He's a Quisling who serves his own interests exclusively.

[spooky3]

2. They are speaking the truth and showing courage, unlike you, Lindsey. Nt

[Blue Owl]

3. What you're too cowardly to do, Lindsey

[mdbl]

5. They are doing what's best for their constituents

Not just ass kissing like you do Lindsay.

[aeromanKC]

6. How to say you hate America without saying you hate America.

Shame on Lindsey for turning his back on America.

[OMGWTF]

31. He's a motherfking JAG officer no less.

[johnnyfins]

34. So much for that "Oath"

huh, Lindsey?

[Mr.Bill]

7. I can say it in one word.

Winning.

[PatrickforB]

8. What the hell is Lindsey doing still supporting Trump? He used to have at least some

credibility when John McCain was still alive, but after his good friend died, he gradually slid off the deep end.

He is more barnacle than he is statesman, frantically searching for someone to attach to.

[ramedy]

9. Lindsey is afraid.

Someone has the photos of him, and he’s afraid they will be leaked.

I have a feeling that Lindsey did something very bad.

[verargert]

19. got fisted like TSF

[johnnyfins]

32. EXACTLY.

He doesn't fear TSF, he fears the dirt that TSF has on him. Poor Lindsey. He hears skeletons rattling in his closet everytime TSF calls. It's so obvious and pathetic.

[Lovie777]

10. shithole's cult is panicking...............

flooding the bullshit polls, Elon paying people with a lottery to win $1 million dollars, and shithole himself mentally declining while Vance is constantly making up shit while lying.

But the shit that comes out of shithole's mouth is getting weirder and more violent.

[LilElf70]

11. It's pretty simple, dumbass

They do not support Trump's policies, nor the way he presents himself, nor the fact he's a fascist, felon, narcissist, rapist, just to name a few. They are definitely supporting the country and the foundation that made this country. It's called the constitution. Hey Lindsey you dumbass, as many have post here, it's all about country first. What an idiot that he does not recognize this. They are not bowing to the dictator, like you are. Stupid is as stupid does.

[JohnSJ]

12. No graham, what the hell are YOU doing? Supporting someone who tried to overthrow th US government. Lindsey

Graham can go to hell. He has no moral or ethical standard like most republicans in congress.

[Oopsie Daisy]

13. Hey, LG! I'm guessing that THEY don't have to worry about incriminating photos being released *

* that could possibly land them in a courtroom, or in prison. They have nothing to fear. They aren't being blackmailed into supporting or defending or excusing Trump.

As I said, it's just a guess. I don't know for sure, but I've heard other people speculating.

[republianmushroom]

14. Well Lindsey

"The danger to this country is the policies of Biden and Harris ... I can't take four more years of this crap." there is always mother Russia for you. Don't let that loading gate hit you in your ass as you leave.

[bluestarone]

15. Somebody has something REALLY BAD on this guy. I mean REALLY BAD!!!!!

His closet must be FULL of really bad shit!!!!

[MLAA]

16. That asshole is being blackmailed.

[oasis]

54. There's no doubt about it. nt

[Magoo48]

17. He truly is unable to understand.

[debm55]

56. Agree for him to be such a tRump ass kisser. There must be something on Lindsay.

[Magoo48]

57. Yep,

[4catsmom]

18. go back into the closet, weasel

if Trump is elected, he'll round all you gay folks up and put you in a camp, on orders from his religious donors

[BaronChocula]

20. This is what the republican exodus reminds me of

[GB_RN]

21. Poor Widdle Windsey...

This fork tongued piece of shit is worried that his days of being able to mooch off Caligula at Marm-a-Lardo, etc., are coming to an end. And that he’ll have to face the music for being on of Cantaloupe Caligula the Corpulent’s biggest fluffers.

[MadameButterfly]

49. I've long compared Trump to Caligula so I love to see it from someone else

and it becomes more apt every day. Lindsey Grahame made a political calculation for his career interests against the interests of the people, against his own earliest instincts, and he should pay for not one ounce of principle.

[GB_RN]

50. Thanks!

The creation of that nickname just hit me one day. I started out by trying to come up with a different word for his orange face, and so, Cantaloupe. The Caligula part was just obvious, and it didn’t take long to come up with a synonym for his excess mass. And thus, the alliterative Cantaloupe Caligula the Corpulent was born. 😁

[MadameButterfly]

51. Have you wachted "I Claudus" ? a PBS program that makes my point

Caligula is the best nickname for Trump. I tried
Voldemort and and D'Arth Vader.. But these guys are too smart for Trump. He isn't top dog, he's a subordant to Putin like Malfoys's dad was subordinant to Voldemort. They pledge allegience and then they are slaves.No room for love.

Sometimes fiction is truth.

[Dan]

22. When it comes to Lindsey, I really think that they have pictures!

[OMGWTF]

30. A caller to a talk show I was listending to (Thom Hartmann perhaps) said he delivered a pizza to Mz. Lindsey's house

He answered the door wearing a bathrobe and there was another man in the background wearing a matching robe. Pizza guy says, "Hey, aren't you a senator?" Mz. Lindsey says, "Yeah, I'm Bernie Sanders."

[Dan]

45. The funny thing is,

I suspect that the majority of us, don’t care if he is gay, but dislike the hypocrisy of his being a GOP Senator.

Plus, there was an article about a month ago where it was speculated that Trump had given permission to Lara Trump to attack Lindsey over being gay, and yet he comes back and kisses the ring.

Bad a Ted Cruz after the attacks on his wife. I would have had more respect for a GOP Senator/Representative if they had chosen to knock Trump on his ass.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

23. Putin: "JUMP, Linz!" Lindsey: "How high?"

[slightlv]

24. They are trying to be part of the solution

And not part of the problem in saving our country from facism. So what's your problem Lindsey? Or do you just feel so safe in your white maleness that rhe rest of the country can go to hell? I have a suggestion for you, Linda, go to Russia, make your bed with Putin, and stay there. Believe me, what you're advocating fits there much better than here. Or does Putin have blackmail on you, too?

[keithbvadu2]

26. Lindsey, I'll gladly donate $20 to you if you tell us what dirt on you that Trump told you he has that made you complete

Lindsey, I'll gladly donate $20 to you if you tell us what dirt on you that Trump told you he has that made you completely reverse course on hating/now loving him.

[snowybirdie]

27. What does Miss Lindsey dislike?

The best economy in a generation? The lowest unemployment since1960? All time stock market high? Low gas prices since during Trump administration? Lowest immigration this year since rtump? lower drug prices for seniors? Why won't the journalists follow up with explanations?

[Hoosier_Progressiv]

28. What the hell are they doing???

Getting a backbone. A spine. Showing true patriotism.

[OMGWTF]

29. Mz. Lindsey, you need to come clean about whatever Shitler has on you. Clearly, you are compromised.

[robleb]

33. Doesn't have a spine nor a backbone and

surrendered his testicles to tRump years ago.

Sad "man".

[wryter2000]

35. Jesus

When TFG ran the first time, Graham said something like, if he’s our nominee, the party will be killed, and we will deserve it,”

On January 7,2021, he said something like,” I’m done.”

[wryter2000]

36. Dupe

Somehow repeated

[twodogsbarking]

37. Oh wait, wait I have the answer for you Mr. Graham.................

con·science
/ˈkänSHəns/
noun
an inner feeling or voice viewed as acting as a guide to the rightness or wrongness of one's behavior.

[peppertree]

38. The very last thing on Lindsey's mind

How else do you expect him to vote the way he does on LGBT rights - after those soirées of his.

[nature-lover]

39. Is there anyone who cares what Graham thinks? Does he have real influence?

[Lulu KC]

40. He's just drawing more attention to their wisdom

and his own idiocy. Please go away, Lindsey.

[Justice matters.]

41. Hey, LG, this "crap" has rescued the economy in 4 years

from the abysmal ditch your disgusting dictatorial idol left with and is now the ENVY of the rest of the world.

And now, all the Economists predict a deep depression in six month if drumph is elected with concepts of plans for the people (IOW, NOTHING).

Keep kissing the convicted felon's ass until you puke, cultist.

[musclecar6]

42. Graham

Is such a flake. Asking what the hell the Republicans who are voicing their support for Harris are doing. The funny thing is he knows fucking full well what they’re doing and he knows it’s the right move, but that weak jackass can never stop kissing Trump‘s ass.

We have a lot of decent Congress people, mostly in the Democrat party, trying to do good with their lives and help others. Then of course we have the guys like Graham and countless others who are national disgraces. They know how dangerous and awful Trump and Vance are, but they are perfectly happy to sell us all down the river full speed ahead for Nazism, which is trying to take over our country.

[Joinfortmill]

43. He's a traitor to his friend John McCain, and his country

F*ck him.

[AZ8theist]

44. They're being PATRIOTS, unlike you, you sniveling COWARD.

Just tell us what Dotard is blackmailing you with, Lindsey.

Nobody FORGOT what you called the treasonous pig BEFORE he got appointed by Putin. Your flip-flopping set world records for hypocrisy. We all know. Just come clean on why....it will be cathardic. You'll feel better after.....

[ColinC]

46. The right thing. Something he knows nothing about...

[Talitha]

47. Whatever they have on Graham must be absolutely heinous.

Nothing else could have made him turn on a dime like he did.

[pansypoo53219]

48. its civics, bitch.

[JT45242]

52. That must be explosive kompromat...

Like pictures that confirm the rumors that have swirled around the fruit loop area of DC since his days as an attack dog for the Clinton impeachment.

Given that he was seen with Epstein....are there pictures with Leningrad Lindsay with younguns...

What is the statute of limitations on things like that?

[Kid Berwyn]

53. Is what Roy Cohn did.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

58. Heartbroken Lindsey?
