Clarence Page writes: 'When Sen. Lindsey Graham warned that there would be 'riots in the streets' if Donald Trump is prosecuted for his handling of classified documents, I wondered what the South Carolina Republican was up to.'
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., leaves the Senate floor after a vote on Capitol Hill in May. Graham, who moved from a fierce critic of Donald Trump to a loyal companion, predicted on Aug. 28 that a prosecution of the former president would lead to"riots in the streets."
Graham twice made a “riots in the street” reference on Fox News’ “Sunday Night in America” as he charged a “double standard” in the FBI’s court-approved search of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in Florida.Repeating an often-heard Republican charge, Graham compared the Mar-a-Lago search to the FBI probes of Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server while she was secretary of state and President Joe Biden’s son Hunter, who is under investigation for tax liabilities.
Yet, with memories of the Jan. 6 Capitol attack by Trump’s “Stop the Steal” supporters, encouragement seemed no longer to be off the table for the former president. Yet, the former and twice-impeached president proposed a “REMEDY” in two Monday posts: “Declare the rightful winner or — and this would be the minimal solution — declare the 2020 Election irreparably compromised and have a new Election, immediately!”
