A clear-eyed view.

In 2015, Senator Lindsey Graham (R-NC) was clear on how he felt about Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

"He's a race-baiting, xenophobic, religious bigot," Graham said. "He doesn't represent my party. He doesn't represents the values that the men and women who wear the uniform are fighting for."


Graham was also a close friend of the late Senator John McCain (R-AZ), whom now-President Donald Trump continues to loathe.

But in 2019, Graham is now one of Trump's most unwavering allies. He demonstrated that most recently in an interview with Fox & Friends while defending Trump's racist tweets, in which he told four minority congresswomen to "go back" to their countries (all are American).

It wasn't long until The View's Meghan McCain—Senator McCain's daughter, who once described Graham as an uncle to her—slammed his defense of Trump's "old, racist dog whistles" in no uncertain terms.

Watch below:

She also criticized her own party for its silence on Trump's incendiary comments.

"The cowardice I'm seeing, Republicans not speaking out and saying it today is embarrassing," the conservative McCain said. "It's deeply cowardly."

She continued:

"Whatever's happening to Lindsey, this is not the person I used to know."

People on both sides of the aisle agreed.

Let's hope other Conservatives follow McCain's lead.

Model Accuses Fashion Brand Of Using AI To Recreate Her Looks For Ad Instead Of Hiring Her

There used to be laws in place for someone's likeness being used without their consent, and most certainly if their likeness was being used in an exploitative way for profit.

But now with the rise of AI-generated photographs, advertisements, and other digital products, the lines seem to have become muddied between the illegal stealing of someone's likeness and AI "inspiration."

Employees in commission-based positions are feeling increasingly pressured to acquire new clients, retain previous clients, and solve the issues their clients call in about with high satisfaction ratings.

Even though tensions are high, and the pressure they're feeling may be unrealistic for any one person to take, that doesn't give them the right to mistreat people who do not want to sign up or want to cancel.
