>"... but they got Trump elected and could screw up another election."

Or maybe it was Hillary, who turned the other cheek when Drumpf stalked her on the debate stage.

For the life of me I can't figure out who you are talking about. How hard would it have been to type a name? What we grammar nazis call "the subject."

If you read my statement carefully, you'll note that it lacks the declarative certainty found in your reply.

If you read my statement carefully, you'll note that I said "a lot like" and not "exactly the same as".

This is your comment to which I refer: "Graham isn't being blackmailed by anyone."

Any resemblance is barely discernable.

Yeah, it seems pretty draconian.

You quite clearly implied it was plausible that Graham was being blackmailed.

It's boring that you're pretending otherwise.

There is no need for Graham to be being blackmailed to explain his behaviour.The man is a craven lickspittle who sucks up to power.

Pretending my point was somehow obscure or overly speculative is ridiculous.

Yes, I know. I am literate and can follow conversations.

My only point here is that my statement lacked the certainty that yours clearly did. It IS the case that only Lindsey Graham knows for sure whether he is or was being blackmailed, so unless you are he...

Of course it's plausible. It's even possible, but because I don't know either way with any certainty, I'm not willing to make an unequivocal statement. Is this really so difficult?

Not difficult, just irritating.
