Protesters followed Sen. Lindsey Graham through the Senate
building while shouting at him after Thursday's Brett Kavanaugh hearing, making his interview
with Fox News difficult to decipher.
However, the whiny liberals were not expecting the brutal reality check that Graham was about
to issue.

The testimony of Palo Alto University professor Christine Blasey Ford and Supreme Court nominee
Judge Brett Kavanaugh before the Judiciary Committee on Thursday was one of the tensest
hearings in the history of the U.S. Senate.
But, the most explosive moment came when it was Sen. Lindsey Graham's turn to speak.
During Thursday's hearing, senators have had the option to hand off their questioning
to Rachel Mitchell, a career prosecutor with decades of experience prosecuting sex crimes.
GOP senators opted to defer to Mitchell during questioning of Christine Blasey Ford, while
Democrats asked their own questions.
Lindsey Graham, however, was eager to speak for himself, forcefully defending Brett Kavanaugh
against the allegation of sexual assault.
Graham had a message for Republicans on the panel as well, saying, "To my Republican
colleagues, if you vote 'no,' you are legitimizing the most despicable thing that
I have seen in my time in politics."
South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham forcefully defended Brett Kavanaugh against
an allegation of sexual assault during a tense Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Thursday
and accused Democrats of wanting to "destroy" the life of President Donald Trump's Supreme
Court nominee.
Immediately following an aggressive line of questioning by Illinois Democratic Sen. Dick
Durbin, Graham said angrily, "What you want to do is destroy this guy's life, hold this
seat open, and hope you win in 2020."
The Republican from South Carolina then turned his attention back to Kavanaugh and asked:
"Are you a gang rapist?"
Kavanaugh replied: "No."
The Republican senator also asked Kavanaugh, "Would you say you have been through hell?"
Kavanaugh responded, "I have been through hell and then some."
[Source: CNN] The South Carolina senator forcefully shouted
at the Democrats sitting across from him, declaring, "What you want to do is destroy
this guy's life, hold this seat open, and hope you win in 2020.
You have said that.
Not me.
You have got nothing to apologize for," he told Kavanaugh.
"When you see [SCOTUS Justices] Sotomayor and Kagan, tell them that Lindsey said 'hello'
because I voted for them.
I would never do to them what you have done to this guy."
Graham fumed, "Boy, you all want power.
God, I hope you never get it.
I hope the American people can see through this sham — that you knew about it and you
held it.
You had no intention of protecting Dr. Ford.
None.
She's as much of a victim as you are."
According to The Daily Caller, protesters followed Sen. Lindsey Graham through the Senate
building while shouting at him after Thursday's Kavanaugh hearing, making his interview with
Fox News difficult to decipher.
The Senate had been replete with loud, angry leftist protesters since the Kavanaugh nomination
began, and they were not happy that Graham had taken such a strong stand in support of
Kavanaugh.
LINDSEY GRAHAM moments ago on Fox (with protesters yelling behind him):
"These people can yell all they want to.
Does not matter.
I believe him."
Proving that he will not be moved by the shrill screams of misguided leftists, Graham had
a message for the protesters on Friday morning, tweeting, "These people can yell all they
want to.
Does not matter.
I believe Judge Kavanaugh and thought what they did to Judge Kavanaugh was despicable."
These people can yell all they want to.
Does not matter.
I believe Judge Kavanaugh and thought what they did to Judge Kavanaugh was despicable.
Please watch and ReTweet if you agree!
Why should not Graham believe Judge Kavanaugh?
After all, his accuser has not been able to provide even a shred of evidence to corroborate
her story.
Even the witnesses she has named deny that the alleged incident ever happened.
Indeed, this has been no more than a sleazy political charade from the very beginning.
