This is why I just laugh whenever the retard rightists mention people like Lindsay Graham. “bUt WhY wOnT tRuMp PrImArY gRaHaM???” It’s comically simple:
I despise Graham but unlike clowns like Massie, he’s smart. Neocons like Lindsay know how to play the game: NEVER publically attack Trump. Vote with him on all the headline news bills. Only be subversive behind the scenes by sneaking insane laws into omnibus bills during closed door committees.
The retard rightists like Massie on the other hand don’t understand this. They’re ideological absolutists, so the realities and realpolitik of running the most powerful nation to ever exist in all of human history don’t mean shit to them.
Trump didn’t round up 100 million brown people and drop them out of helicopters into the Pacific Ocean and nuke Tel Aviv on the day he was inaugurated? ZION DON IS A JEWISH TRAITOR AND IS THE ANTICHRIST AND WE MUST VOTE FOR THE “legalize brown people raping white children” PARTY TO STOP HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
John Cornyn received roughly $1.8 million over his career from AIPAC, NORPAC, the Republican Jewish Coalition, and pro-Israel bundlers.
Over that same career, Cornyn voted for more than $105 billion in aid to Israel. He never once voted against it.
Ken Paxton, meanwhile, has never taken a dime from pro-Israel groups.
So I’m supposed to believe the Jews, Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, and Miriam Adelson control Trump so completely that they let him politically destroy one of their most reliable allies in the Senate?
The claim that Thomas Massie was primaried and lost because he wasn’t pro-Israel falls apart easily. Massie lost because he became deeply unpopular with voters who expect Republicans to not enable and cozy up to leftists.
