To reporters and colleagues, Graham has reasoned that he’s positioning himself to push his own agenda and exert a positive sway. It’s an argument in line with other Republican lawmakers’ rationalizations that they’re trying to wring the best from an unfortunate situation.

But it’s reckless folly, because it doesn’t take Trump’s creeping authoritarianism, his instability, his degradation of the presidency and, yes, his racism into full account. To flatter him is to sanitize and encourage all of that.

I would have thought Graham wouldn't fall for Trump's BS.
