‘I Hope This Never Ends’: Lindsey Graham Backs ‘Trump 2028’
Senate Budget Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-SC) expressed support for a third Trump term in the White House on Tuesday, telling Fox News, “I hope this never ends.”
“You have 85 co-sponsors for a bill to sanction countries that are funding Putin’s war machine,” said Fox News host Sean Hannity during an interview with Graham. “Look, it’s a nuclear armed country. We don’t want a conflict with Putin. I don’t like that Biden got us into a proxy war and he was giving all of these weapons. Trump is selling the weapons and he’s basically saying, ‘Maybe Putin is a paper tiger. He should have won that war in seven days, it didn’t happen.'”
Graham responded:
Trump 2028. I hope this never ends. When he asks what should you do if a Russian jet flies into your country, shoot it down. He’s tried to go out of his way to get Putin to the table. We don’t want to humiliate Russia, we just want to end the war, and to our friends in Russia, here’s what Trump did today. He told NATO, “I’ll sell you all the weapons you want to, you can provide them to Ukraine, and as to Ukraine, you can use them anyway you want.” So to the Russian military, you’re going to be against the high-end American weapons that will be sold to NATO for the benefit of Ukraine and this war is coming to your backyard here with no limitations like Biden. He’s everything Biden wasn’t. He stood up to the U.N. in the U.N. and called them out for who they are.
The senator continued, “He put Putin on notice today that ‘I’m going to give Ukraine– sell Ukraine the weapons they need to continue this fight and it’s coming to your backyard.’ He told the Europeans if you don’t stop buying Russian oil and gas you got nobody to blame but yourself. Hungary, Slovakia, and Turkey are buying a billion dollars of Russian oil and gas a month.”
Graham concluded, “So God bless President Trump. I think he gave the right message on the world stage and, you know, he told the world what they needed to hear – up your game.”
Graham previously expressed support for a third Trump term in the White House in March, writing, “My take on President @realDonaldTrump’s address tonight: Inspiring, funny, compelling and the Democrats’ worst nightmare. Trump 2028!”
President Donald Trump himself has toyed with the idea of running for a third term, selling “Trump 2028” merchandise despite the 22nd Amendment of the Constitution prohibiting a president who has served two terms from being president again.
