Hannity: Lindsey Graham didn't love war, he wanted PEACE

[0:00] WE BEGIN WITH THIS, TAKE A LOOK. [0:02] IF YOU DON'T LIKE ME WORKING [0:04] WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP TO MAKE THE [0:06] WORLD A BETTER PLACE, I DON'T [0:09] GIVE A . [0:10] SENATOR LINDSEY GRAHAM WAS A [0:12] LOYAL FRIEND, A GOOD PERSON, A [0:14] TRUE AMERICAN PATRIOT, HAD A [0:16] BACKBONE OF STEEL, ONE OF A [0:17] KIND. [0:18] LINDSEY GRAHAM COULD STAND UP TO [0:20] THE LEFT-WING MOB LIKE NO OTHER. [0:22] YOU MIGHT REMEMBER DURING THE [0:24] KAVANAUGH WITCH HUNT, THIS VERY [0:26] POWERFUL MOMENT OF CLARITY FROM [0:28] SENATOR GRAHAM, IT SAVED KAVANAUGH [0:30] COULD TAKE A LOOK. [0:32] HE WAS ABLE TO TAKE A LOOK. [0:34] AND HE SINGLE HANDILY BROUGHT [0:36] SANITY BACK TO THE U.S. SENATE. [0:38] TAKE A LOOK. [0:39] IF YOU WANTED AN FBI [0:41] INVESTIGATION, YOU COULD HAVE [0:42] COME TO US. [0:43] WHAT YOU WANT TO DO IS DESTROY [0:45] THIS GUY'S LIFE, HOLD THIS SEAT [0:47] OPEN, AND HOPE YOU WIN IN 2020. [0:49] YOU'VE SAID THAT, NOT ME. [0:53] YOU'VE GOT NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE [0:55] FOR. [0:56] WHEN YOU SEE SOTOMAYER AND KAGAN [0:59] TELL THEM THAT LINDSEY SAID OH [1:01] THIS IS THE MOST UNETHICAL SHAM [1:06] SINCE I'VE BEEN IN POLITICS. [1:08] WOULD YOU SAY YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH [1:09] HELL? [1:10] I'VE BEEN THROUGH HELL [1:12] AND THEN SOME. [1:14] THIS IS NOT A JOB INTERVIEW. [1:16] THIS IS HELL. [1:19] THIS IS GOING TO DESTROY THE [1:21] ABILITY OF GOOD PEOPLE TO COME [1:23] FORWARD BECAUSE OF THIS CRAP. [1:25] TO MY REPUBLICAN COLLEAGUES, IF [1:27] YOU VOTE NO, YOU'RE LEGITIMIZING [1:31] THE MOST DESPICABLE THING I HAVE [1:33] SEEN IN MY TIME IN POLITICS. [1:35] YOU WANT THIS SEAT? [1:38] I HOPE YOU NEVER GET IT. [1:40] I HOPE YOU'RE ON THE SUPREME [1:42] COURT. [1:43] THAT'S EXACTLY WHERE YOU SHOULD [1:44] BE. [1:45] AND I HOPE THAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE [1:47] WILL SEE THROUGH THIS CHARADE. [1:49] AND I WISH YOU WELL. [1:52] AND I INTEND TO VOTE FOR YOU. [1:54] AND I HOPE EVERYBODY WHO IS [1:56] FAIR-MINDED WILL. [1:58] WOW. [2:00] POWERFUL. [2:01] NOW, DURING THE HEARING, [2:02] SENATOR GRAHAM WAS HACKLED BY A [2:04] GROUP OF LEFT-WING AGITATORS [2:05] OUTSIDE THE CAPITAL. [2:06] BUT IN TRUE LINDSEY GRAHAM FORM [2:08] AND FASHION, HE JUST DONNED A [2:10] SMILE JUST AT HIS TIE AND BECAME [2:12] A SHINING EXAMPLE OF HOW TO [2:14] TUNE OUT A MOB. [2:16] AT THE VERY SAME TIME, SENATOR [2:18] GRAHAM PLAYED A VERY CRITICAL [2:20] ROLE DEBUNKING THE RUSSIA HOAX. [2:22] THE SENATOR STOOD BY PRESIDENT [2:24] TRUMP THROUGH THICK, THIN, EVEN [2:26] THROUGH THEIR FRIENDSHIP. [2:27] IT GOT OFF TO A ROCKY START. [2:28] THAT'S ALL THE MEDIA HAS BEEN [2:30] FOCUSED ON BECAUSE DURING THE [2:32] 2016 REPUBLICAN PRIMARIES, THE [2:34] PAIR DID BATTLE IT OUT. [2:35] TRUMP EVEN READ OUT GRAHAM'S [2:37] PHONE NUMBER DURING A PRESS [2:38] CONFERENCE. [2:39] I'VE BEEN TOGETHER WITH THEM [2:41] WHEN THEY ACTUALLY JOKED ABOUT [2:43] THESE MOMENTS. [2:44] BUT INSTEAD OF GETTING ANGRY, [2:46] NOPE, SENATOR GRAHAM DID [2:47] EXACTLY THIS. [3:09] IF ALL ELSE FAILS, YOU CAN [3:12] ALWAYS GIVE YOUR NUMBER TO THE [3:13] DONALD. [3:14] THIS IS FOR ALL THE VETERANS. [3:17] BY THE WAY, I THINK THAT [3:19] NUMBER IS STILL ON HIS [3:20] FACEBOOK PAGE. [3:21] SENATOR GRAHAM, THE GUY I KNEW, [3:23] THE FRIEND I HAD, HE WAS [3:24] HILARIOUS. [3:25] NOT AFRAID TO EVER MIX IT UP. [3:27] EVEN IF, WELL, THAT MEANT A [3:29] CURSE WORD HERE OR THERE, EVEN [3:31] ON THIS SHOW. [3:32] TAKE A LOOK. [3:34] SO THEY WANT TO [3:35] INSTITUTIONALIZE AIDING AND [3:36] ABETTING LAWBREAKING. [3:37] TOTALLY. [3:38] THEY WANT TO REWARD THOSE [3:40] PEOPLE THAT BROKE LAWS WITH [3:42] YOUR HARD-EARNED TAX DOLLARS [3:44] AND BENEFITS, RIGHT? [3:45] TOTAL. [3:46] STOP IT. [3:47] WE HAD THE ABRAHAM ACCORDS [3:49] WHERE PEOPLE WERE RECOGNIZING [3:51] ISRAEL AND DUMB BIDEN COMES ALONG [3:55] AND TEARS IT ALL UP. [3:58] ALVIN BRAGG, LETITIA JAMES, [4:00] $500 MILLION VERDICT AGAINST THE [4:02] TRUMP FAMILY. [4:03] THIS BULL S**T NEEDS TO COME TO [4:05] END. [4:06] I'M NOT GOING TO PUT UP WITH [4:07] THIS CRAP ANYMORE. [4:08] I'M GOING TO SUE. [4:09] I'M GOING TO SUE THE HELL OUT OF [4:10] THESE PEOPLE. [4:11] WE'RE NOT GOING TO STOP TO THE [4:13] NEW YORK TIMES AND THE WASHINGTON [4:14] POST WHO HAVEN'T DONE A DAMN [4:16] THING TO GET TO THE BOTTOM OF [4:17] ANY OF THIS WHO WANT TO PULL [4:19] THEIR OWN PEOPLE. [4:21] I'M GOING TO SURE THAT WE'RE [4:22] GOING TO SURE THAT WE'RE GOING TO [4:23] SURE THAT WE'RE GOING TO HAPPEN [4:24] FOR SPREADING BULL S**T. [4:27] GIVE IT BACK. [4:28] GIVE IT BACK. [4:29] WE'RE NOT STOPPING. [4:30] I MEAN, YOU GOT TO LOVE THAT. [4:34] SENATOR GRAHAM LOVED DEBATE. [4:35] HE LOVED HIS JOB. [4:37] NO ONE ON CAPITOL HILL EVER WORKED [4:39] HARDER, TRAVEL MORE THAN LINDSEY [4:40] GRAHAM. [4:41] CONTRARY TO THIS NARRATIVE THAT [4:43] HAS EMERGED AMONG SOME, YOU [4:45] KNOW, ISOLATIONIST CIRCLES, [4:47] LINDSEY GRAHAM, YEAH, HE [4:48] BELIEVED IN FIGHTING EVIL, BUT [4:49] HE WANTED TO END THE CONFLICT [4:51] IN UKRAINE AND ALL THE [4:53] CONFLICTS IN THE MIDDLE EAST. [4:55] HE WANTED A NEW ABRAHAM ACCORDS, [4:57] ABRAHAM ACCORDS PLUS. [4:59] HE ALSO KNEW WE DO NOT LIVE IN A [5:01] BUBBLE. [5:02] HE SIMPLY RECOGNIZED EVIL FOR [5:03] WHAT IT IS, AND IT DOES EXIST. [5:05] AND LIKE PRESIDENT TRUMP, HE [5:07] KNEW IT HAD TO BE ERADICATED [5:09] BEFORE ANY PATH TO PEACE COULD [5:11] EVER EMERGE. [5:12] HIS DREAM, AND HE STATED IT [5:14] OFTEN, NEVER GETS CREDIT FOR [5:15] IT, IS THAT EVERY COUNTRY IN [5:17] THE MID-EAST WOULD RECOGNIZE [5:19] ISRAEL'S RIGHT TO EXIST AND [5:21] AGREE TO THE ABRAHAM ACCORDS OR [5:23] SOMETHING SIMILAR, AND THAT A [5:25] PATH TO PEACE WOULD EXIST FOR A [5:27] LONG PERIOD OF TIME TO COME. [5:29] SO, SENATORS GRAHAM TOUTED THE [5:31] PRESIDENT AND HIS PEACE THROUGH [5:33] STRENGTH, NO FOREVER WAR, [5:35] AMERICA FIRST STRATEGY ALL OVER [5:36] THE WORLD. [5:37] IN SPITE OF WHAT SOME PEOPLE SAY, [5:39] HE BELIEVED IN OUR COUNTRY, OUR [5:41] WAY OF LIFE. [5:42] HE SERVED OUR COUNTRY FOR MORE [5:44] THAN THREE DECADES IN THE AIR [5:46] FORCE, AIR NATIONAL GUARD, AND [5:47] AIR FORCE RESERVE. [5:48] HE LOVED THE PEOPLE OF SOUTH [5:49] CAROLINA. [5:50] HE LOVED HIS FAMILY. [5:51] HE LOVED HIS SISTER. [5:52] TOMORROW SHE WILL BE THE NEW [5:54] SENATOR FROM THE GREAT STATE OF [5:56] SOUTH CAROLINA. [5:57] ONCE REFERRED TO HER BROTHER, [5:59] LINDSAY, AS A FATHER, A [6:01] BROTHER, A MOTHER, ALL WRAPPED [6:03] INTO ONE. [6:04] AFTER GRAHAM ADOPTED HER AS A [6:09] YOUNG MAN WHEN SHE WAS ONLY 13 [6:11] YEARS OLD FOLLOWING THE DEATHS [6:13] OF BOTH OF THEIR PARENTS. [6:14] AND NOW AFTER AN ENDORSEMENT FROM [6:16] PRESIDENT TRUMP AND THE GOVERNOR [6:17] OF SOUTH CAROLINA, AS I SAID, [6:19] HIS SISTER DARLENE WILL SERVE [6:21] OUT THE REST OF LINDSAY GRAHAM'S [6:24] TERM STARTING TOMORROW AT ABOUT [6:27] 2.30 EASTERN IN THE U.S. [6:29] SENATE. [6:30] TAKE A LOOK AT THIS. [6:31] I KNOW LINDSAY WAS LOVED AND [6:33] EXPECTED BY MANY, AND I GREATLY [6:35] APPRECIATE THE MEMORIES AND EVEN [6:37] THE FUNNY STORIES THAT HAVE BEEN [6:40] SHARED. [6:41] THESE SHARED EXPERIENCES, ALONG [6:43] WITH OUR FAITH, HAVE GOTTEN US [6:45] THROUGH THESE PAST TWO VERY [6:47] DIFFICULT DAYS. [6:49] MY BROTHER WAS THE MOST AMAZING [6:51] PERSON, OUTSTANDING LEADER, AND [6:54] JUST A GENUINELY GOOD MAN. [6:57] HE WAS KIND AND CONSIDERATE AND [7:00] LOVED BY HIS FAMILY DEARLY. [7:03] AS I THINK EVERYONE WOULD AGREE, [7:06] LINDSAY WORKED HARDER THAN [7:08] ANYONE. [7:09] HE WORKED NONSTOP TO MAKE OUR [7:12] STATE, COUNTRY, AND WORLD [7:14] BETTER. [7:15] DARLENE SHOWED AMAZING STRENGTH [7:18] TODAY, AND I KNOW THAT HER BROTHER [7:20] LINDSAY LOOKING DOWN AND WOULD BE [7:22] VERY PROUD. [7:23] ON A PERSONAL NOTE, SENATOR GRAHAM [7:25] WAS A GREAT FRIEND, AND HE WILL [7:27] BE MISSED ON THIS PROGRAM. [7:29] HE MADE A LASTING IMPACT ON [7:31] AMERICA AND THE WORLD. [7:32] WE ARE FOREVER, FOREVER GRATEFUL. [7:34] ALL RIGHT. [7:35] THANKS FOR WATCHING. [7:37] CHECK OUT MY NEW PODCAST HANGING [7:39] OUT WITH ME, SEAN HANNITY.
