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.

Guy Admits His Ignorance After Girlfriend Educates Him On What Really Happens During Menstruation—And He's Horrified

That's why there are so many men like TikToker @connortalkslol who only start finding out what menstruation really is and what the cycle entails when they go looking for the information themselves.
