Brilliant - Eric Swalwell Just Used Ivanka Trump To Destroy Lindsey Graham

Rep Swalwell: Like a Republican president giving his unqualified child a @WhiteHouse job while she’s trademarking her name in China? You mean a Republican like that?


@LindseyGrahamSC

I love Joe Biden as a person but we are not going to give a pass to what is obviously a conflict of interest.

I believe Hunter Biden’s association on the Burisma board doesn’t pass the smell test.

If a Republican was in the same position, they’d certainly be investigated!

How about a supreme court justice resigning so Republicans can shove Gorsuch into the supreme court, as a thank you to Trump and his connection to the justice's son for getting his bank to lend money to Trump when no other bank would........

Or anyone of of hundred of other what if's..........

Oh and let's not forget the son-in-law who's doing what God only knows to enrich himself. How much are government secrets worth on the open market?

Ironic the original tweet was from Lindsey Graham.
@LindseyGrahamSC

Yes! Lindsey Graham!
If he were honest with himself he would be having the worst case of vapors while spilling his mint julip.
When the truth finally comes out Lindsey will find out that the military families in SC will not be happy.
Not happy at all with the betrayal of the former USAF JAG officer.

From JAG Officer to JAGOff traitor in defense of an orange Russian puppet.

Another nepotistic benefit oozing from the president? The RNC buying $94,800 worth of junior's ghostwritten book.

If only one news (?) interviewer would ask Lindsey that question live, the easiest of follow ups, I would be happy. Through in Jr and The Kush as well. Very few will see Swalwell's tweet and it means nothing without an immediate answer from trump's ass parasite, Graham. If only one would ask any of these GOP criminals, "So when can we expect Gooliani, Nunez, and Jack-it-off, to send in an investigative team to Isreal, and freeze the hundreds of millions in cash and weapons we give them every year, until we eliminate the corruptions?" Just one. Make it a Dem commercial and air it daily, better use of billionaire cash, Ex Mayor, than another one running for president.

Its obviously not a secret in regards to Trump's nepotism. Its been going on since day one.

The sickness is in Trumps cult followers. That they will forgive Trump of any crimes. Past present or future. In fact he can't be found guilty of anything because he is above the law. His Great White Hope is more important. Trump shits turds of solid gold.

What is even sicker is a smarter man like Graham using that sickness in the GOP base for his own purposes. He knows its all a double standard. Not even that, as Hunter was working in the private sector. But he also knows how deep this sickness goes and that the deplorables have been now conditioned to just dismiss any misdeed by Trump, but get ginned up at any hint of misappropriate behaviour in a Democrat

Clearly, Miss Lindsey was pandering to the base of MAGAts.

Rep. Swalwell’s tweet was like turning on a light when there’s a nasty cockroach on the kitchen counter. The only response is to swat it quickly and hard. Which he did superbly.

Keep up the good work!
