Check out this hogwash from Leningrad Lindsey

I wrote an email to this shit head when the Senate was debating the trump impeachment 2.

I just, today received this ignorant response:

**************************************

Thank you for contacting me regarding the 2021 impeachment trial of former President Donald J. Trump. On February 13, 2021, I voted to acquit President Trump on articles of impeachment.

The charge against former President Trump for inciting violence was contrary to the evidence. It was never the goal of the House to find out what happened on January 6, 2021 and then assign blame. They were assigning complete and total blame to President Trump regardless. This was an impeachment effort driven by passion and hatred against President Trump.

In their drive to convict former President Trump, the House Managers totally ignored bedrock legal standards. The House of Representatives held no hearings, had no witnesses, heard no testimony, and made the outrageous claim that the First Amendment does not apply to political speech.

As your United States Senator, my primary job is to understand and represent the interests of all South Carolinians. The opportunity to hear from you about the issues confronting our nation is not only essential to representative democracy, but allows me to better serve the people of South Carolina. We will not see eye-to-eye on every issue; however, I promise to always give your concerns the consideration they deserve.

I encourage you to visit my website — http://lgraham.senate.gov — as it will have information on the most recent activities before the U.S. Senate. You can also sign up for our e-mail newsletter, Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube pages which will provide the latest information and updates on the major issues facing our state and our nation.

Thank you again for contacting me. I truly appreciate the opportunity to hear from you and am honored to have the opportunity to represent your interests in the U.S. Senate.

Sincerely,

Lindsey O. Graham
United States Senator
