Sen. Graham was clear that he would hold off on a SCOTUS confirmation during the run up to a presidential election. Now he is 'dead set' on confirming Pres. Trump's nominee to replace the late Justice Ginsburg.

Both parties (Dems and GOP) have been flip flopping on the idea of SCOTUS nomination during election years. Both are hypocrites! No one should be surprised here. If a party has the senate and president, then IT WILL BE DONE. Not to think so is naïve

Everyone has the right to change their mind. Ask Joe Biden!

LindseyGrahamSC Got me some new sandals for fall before it gets too cold. I understand they're not selling well at all in SC.

It amazes me how many naive people are tweeting to this with ignorance. They're just now realizing what both parties do. At least most republicans don't resort to violence hatred and racism like most democrats do.

What on earth does he have on you, Lindsey? LindseyGrahamSC

.LindseyGrahamSC Rationalize it all you want to, Sen Graham, you're still a hypocrite &, even worse, a liar. Shame on you. Shame, shame, shame on you. Your friend John McCain would be so disappointed in you for this decision. He would wonder where your integrity went.

You cannot expect immoral and unethical men to do moral and ethical things.

29 previous seats opened during an election year. 29 times the sitting president has made a nomination. Including Obama. So very not sad for you

An empty chair already has the votes?... interesting... I personally will relax and let KARMA do it’s thing... not just Garland but going against the dying wishes of Ginsburg... go ahead at your peril...

Prime reason not to reelect LindseyGrahamSC, can't trust him. By the way, Kavanaugh doesn't have a damn thing to do w/Graham going against his word. There's STILL major problems w/Kavanaugh Graham chose to overlook, one being over $200,000 in debt that suddenly just disappeared

Benito35ddDavis LindseyGrahamSC is afraid if he doesn’t ram this SCOTUS through before election, his gay files will be released!

He's been in bed with tRump repugs since the start.

Well these are exceptional times (they'd like you to believe)

Graham has been a malignant presence in the senate long before now.

Why expect anything less from these turncoats? LindseyGrahamSC I am a Republican who cannot wait to vote every last one of these turds out of our government.

I hope that Senator Romney, one of the few Republican Senators that I revere will once again stand up for what is right and not play into the bad leadership of the GOP

Vote for harrisonjaime

Flip flop, hell he just lied just like trump have in everyday of this administration took office. America deserve better than to have white men still hold power over such a diverse nation.

Remember Georgy Bush stumbling over 'Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.' (Heh Heh!) Trump doesn't even give laughs & new words. Like ' strategery'. He's just stupid, fat, ugly, orange & boring. But very very deadly! TyRantaSourUs t'Rump🦖

Trump did not clean the swamp in Senate and Congress, He Promised before elected but actually joined it as their leader. He now is the head alligator in the swamp. SO SAD and SO BAD for our Nation

Uh, Kavanaugh !!!

It's what he does best now.

People it’s really time to remove Lieing Lindsey Graham at them polls he’s no good to our democracy and he’s another working with other foreign leader people don’t let Lindsey Graham and Republicans destroys our democracy.

His panties must be wet with the prospect of agreeing with Trump.

Trump took a oath to do what he is doing and if the shoe was on the other foot democratic would do the very same thing hello

Idk why ppl are shocked to find he talks out both sides of his mouth.

GOP and their cult followers say they must do what they are obligated to do. Yet they would NOT call even one witness to a trial of our impeached President. They are a disgrace!

Maybe what you pricks did to Kavanaugh changed his mind.

Good. We can't have a divided court.

Ya.. and we are dead set on him being throw out of his Senate seat so I hope he knows that.

LindseyTheDuplicitous

Hey msnbc would you like a tissue?

All they are is democracy Kiera

After Kavanagh all bets are off!

Why does msnbc want to flat out lie to there own audience

Seems..unmanly Lyndsey.

what Graham should be asked that as 138K sick and over 3,200 dead in his state, why are judges more important to him that providing help to the sick and the dead in his state and the nation?

We get it- Republicans are hypocrites- can you all get on to pressing Democrats for a strategy or are words just the same old impotent strategy they plan to use again

Senator Graham released a letter explaining that the Dem's savage treatment of Kavanaugh convinced him that they can't be given an inch when it comes to confirmations:

Thanks for the news captain obvious.
