A change for the worse.

Numerous Republican lawmakers who railed against then-candidate Donald Trump became his most loyal subjects after he ascended to the Presidency in an upset victory.

Few, however, have taken a more radical ideological shift than Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who said during the campaign that Donald Trump would corrupt the soul of the United States. He's now, famously, one of Trump's most devoted servants—especially throughout the ongoing impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump.


On Thursday, Graham launched a probe to find out if Vice President Joe Biden used his position to stifle investigations into the Ukrainian gas company his son worked for, despite numerous diplomats testifying that they knew Biden to be an upstanding Vice President.

Just a few years earlier, Graham thought the same thing.

Watch below.

Graham said:

"If you can't admire Joe Biden as a person there's probably—you got a problem and you need to do some self-evaluation because what's not to like?"

He got choked up as he talked about Biden's loss of his son and other immediate family members.

"I called him after Beau died and he basically said, well, Beau was my soul. We talked for a long time...He came to my ceremony and said some of the most incredibly heartfelt things that anybody could ever say to me. And he's the nicest person I think I've ever met in politics. He is as good a man as God ever created."

The 2016 video was shared by the recently created Twitter parody account "Lindsey Graham's conscience."

Those who watched it had ample feelings regarding Graham's conscience.

How far he's fallen.

Even Trump's NASA Director Had To Set Kim Kardashian Straight After She Said The Moon Landing 'Didn't Happen'

Special Olympics Fires Back At Kid Rock With Powerful Statement After He Used 'The R-Word' To Describe Halloween Costume

MAGA singer Kid Rock was called out by Loretta Claiborne, the Chief Inspiration Officer of the Special Olympics, after he used the "r-word"—a known ableist slur—to describe his Halloween costume this year.

Kid Rock, whose real name is Robert James Ritchie, was speaking with Fox News host Jesse Watters when he donned a face mask and said he'd be going as a "r**ard" for Halloween. Watters had guessed he was dressed as Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases who spearheaded the nation's COVID-19 pandemic response.
