LindseyGrahamResign demands flood Twitter after he advised Donald Trump Jr. to ignore a subpoena

The social media campaign to see #LindseyGrahamResign was sparked by a deluge of Democratic Coalition demands and the South Carolina Republican's own hard turn toward what many see as his defense of the Trump family over the rule of law.

— Scott Dworkin May 14, 2019Following Graham's latest embrace of the president, a pair of his friends appeared on cable news shows Monday in an almost intervention-like tone to express concern for the South Carolina senator. Moderate Democratic Senator Joe Manchin pondered if the recent loss of his Senate friend John McCain could be clouding Graham's judgment.

The panel hoped to clarify apparent discrepancies with his 2017 testimony that he was"peripherally aware" of the Moscow Trump Tower project. But accusations that Graham and his Trump family allies think they are "above the law" were already inundating social media and cable news shows. On CNN, an intervention-like set of former and current friends of the South Carolina senator expressed shock and sadness at his Trump Jr. advice.

The Democratic Coalition group pounced on Graham's continued defenses of Trump in the face of the law, posting a litany of videos from Graham during 1999 impeachment hearings of former President Bill Clinton. Appearing to prove his career-long partisan divide, Graham hisses at the former Democratic president and offers a scathing case for his impeachment.

Senate Intel Committee subpoenas Donald Trump Jr. in Russia probeTrump Jr. told the Senate in 2017 he was only 'peripherally aware' of a Russia deal with the Agalarovs. Michael Cohen said he briefed Trump Jr. 10 times. 'I love it, especially by the end of the week.' I can't wait to see Donnie Jr. and the rest of the Trump crime family brought to justice. In other words he knows they were working with Russia but too dumb to actually understand how. Countdown begins now until somebody suggests that Burr is a closet Democrat. Oh wait: too late. Already happened.
