'Dancing Monkey' Lindsey Graham Performs For Donald Trump In 'Extraordinary' New Audio

 https://currently.att.yahoo.com/news/dancing-monkey-lindsey-graham-performs-074337674.html


Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) sucks up to former President Donald Trump just weeks after the U.S. Capitol riot in new audio released by New York Times reporters Jonathan Martin and Alex Burns.

Graham condemned Trump for inciting the violence on Jan. 6, 2021, but quickly flip-flopped and devoted himself to groveling. The audio that Martin and Burns shared on “The Daily Show with Trevor Noah” on Thursday shows how his denunciation of Trump had a “pretty fast expiration date,” said Burns.

In the audio, Trump takes a telephone call from Graham while being interviewed by the reporters in the lobby of his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida for their book “This Will Not Pass,” which was released Tuesday.

Trump puts Graham on speakerphone and asks him to tell the journalists if he’s actually any good at golf. Graham proceeds to extoll Trump’s skills on the course, saying Trump even started to help him with his own game.

“I think just hearing in real-time in front of us, this sort of dancing monkey routine was really an extraordinary moment,” Burns told host Noah.
