Most are not very fond of him.<\/p>\n<p>But somehow, despite being so unpopular, Graham never fails to win reelection. He\u2019s in his fourth six-year term and is favored to win a fifth next year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>President Trump is doing his part to make sure that happens. <\/strong>He\u2019s poised to support Graham at a major fundraiser and golf tournament next month.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Post and Courier<\/em> of Charleston <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.postandcourier.com\/politics\/lindsey-graham-sc-president-donald-trump-golf-fundraiser\/article_f8aaf566-0195-476e-9266-c0377b401700.html\">reports<\/a><\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\u201cDubbed the \u2018Trump Graham Golf Classic,\u2019 the event will be held at an undisclosed Florida location \u2014 likely a Trump property \u2014 with an expected lineup of who\u2019s-who from the Republican donor class.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>President Trump has cast himself as anti-establishment and anti-globalist. He branded himself the \u201cPeace President\u201d in his second term and boasts of having \u201csolved\u201d eight wars since taking office nine months ago.<\/p>\n<p>But when Trump\u2019s first in-person campaign fundraiser of the 2026 election cycle is for Lindsey Graham, and his top priority for defeat in Congress is Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky, that should give a clue as to where Trump\u2019s true loyalties lie.<\/p>\n<p>The one Trump supports, Graham, is the ultimate establishment guy, a Washington insider if there ever was one, who never met a war he didn\u2019t want to fund, or a country to which he didn\u2019t want to commit U.S. military assets. And the guy Trump rails against and promises to help defeat in the 2026 primary election, Mr. Massie, is dead-set against forever wars, endless deficit spending, and the general growing of government. Trying to make sense of this while still believing the lie about the \u201cPeace President\u201d requires mental gymnastics I\u2019m not willing to engage in.<\/p>\n<p>The upcoming November golf tournament has already been dubbed the \u201cTrump-Graham Classic.\u201d It\u2019s more like a classic sellout of Trump\u2019s base, most of which voted against the forever wars.<\/p>\n<p>In a Truth Social post earlier this year, President Trump enthusiastically endorsed Graham for a fifth term in the Senate. Trump called Graham a \u201cwonderful friend\u201d who loves America and is committed to putting America first.<\/p>\n<p>But the facts speak otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>Lindsey Graham is the leader of the neocon wing of the Republican Party in the Senate, having used his position to work both publicly and privately to sabotage <a href=\"https:\/\/sputnikglobe.com\/20250629\/sen-grahams-sanctions-bill-cutting-off-americas-nose-to-spite-russia--1122359874.html\">peace efforts in Ukraine<\/a>; he\u2019s also pushed for or supported military action against Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Greenland and even Mexico.<\/p>\n<p>Graham has admitted in interviews with the mainstream media that the real reason the U.S. is supporting NATO\u2019s proxy war against Russia by backing Ukraine is because the U.S. wants control over Ukraine\u2019s wealth of natural resources. In other words, don\u2019t believe the lies about \u201cfighting for democracy and freedom\u201d in Ukraine and stopping Russia from marching on the whole of Europe. These are just made-up narratives meant to garner public support for funding the continuation of the proxy war.<\/p>\n<p>Following a haul of $1.7 million in the third quarter, Graham\u2019s reelection campaign has total cash on hand of $14.5 million with zero debt. This is by far the largest war chest of any Republican senator up for reelection next year.<\/p>\n<p>So with Trump\u2019s endorsement and that staggering amount of cash, it\u2019s unlikely that anyone will be able to prevent Washington\u2019s supreme swamp creature from winning a fifth term.<\/p>\n<p>Needless to say, Graham is a favorite of the U.S. military-industrial complex and of the powerful globalist elites in Silicon Valley.<\/p>\n<p>Larry Ellison, the founder and chairman of Oracle and a prominent technocrat who brags about how modern AI cameras watching us 24\/7 will keep us all on our \u201cbest behavior,\u201d gave $1 million in July to Graham\u2019s Security is Strength Super PAC, according to Federal Election Commission filings.<\/p>\n<p>Other Graham backers include defense contractors Boeing, Honeywell, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, General Electric and Raytheon.<\/p>\n<p>Graham has never been married and has no children.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s Tucker Carlson speaking about how fake democracy leads to fake representatives like Lindsey Graham.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fMJ-nvM7_Oc?si=SaLXhegCFuQtbR0b\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n&#8212;<\/div>\n<p>It\u2019s implausible to me how Trump could really be for peace while so energetically throwing his support behind what is one of the most pro-war senators in U.S. history.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/leohohmann.substack.com\/subscribe\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Upgrade to paid<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/leohohmann.substack.com\/p\/peace-president-trump-along-with\">Source\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lindsey Graham may be one of the most hated politicians in South Carolina and the nation, but he keeps winning because he serves Washington&#8217;s true masters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":39267,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[61,58],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-317154","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-Commentary","category-Current_Affairs"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/317154","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/39267"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=317154"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/317154\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":317228,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/317154\/revisions\/317228"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=317154"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=317154"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=317154"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
