Scratching my head on Graham’s AG comments. They don’t add up given how anti-Trump Graham has been, and how Graham served alongside Sessions & McCain. A couple of theories: 1- Does Sessions want out & told Graham, who now is aligning w Trump outwardly to insure Graham gets /1
To weigh in substantially on the AG replacement so that Trump doesn’t go rogue? 2- Or does Graham want AG job himself, again to somehow preserve Mueller investigation & ensure no rogue Trump AG pick? 3- Or is Graham just doing it to mollify Trump so he doesn’t mess up midterms?/2
Either way, I honestly think Graham is playing Trump more than he is looking to humiliate his & McCain’s former colleague Sessions. Graham saw thru Trump early on in 2015-16. Given how Trump has mistreated McCain & Sessions publicly, my hunch is Graham has a longer game here./END

I have a story to make you hopeful. Last Dec., a woman I don’t really know emailed me to ask to meet - she had figured out I was political through a mutual association. I had assumed she was a Dem asking me to meet about how to get involved for 2020. Today, we met. Turns out /1
she is a lifelong Republican who voted for Hillary. Even though she voted for HRC, she still considered herself a Republican in 2016. She had been an active Republican & done work with them in her early career days. BUT, during the Kavanaugh confirmation process, she reached a /2
Tipping point against the Republican Party. She feels now like she cannot be part of a party which is so anti-woman. So the first bit of good news was that she wants to leave the party. But that is not all. She told me that she knows many women in the same boat as her. Plus, /3

Short Thread: I keep thinking about the fact that @gibsondunn attorney Ted Olson is representing @CNN in this 1st amendment case involving @Acosta vs. the WH. Ted is a well-known long-time establishment Republican who has been w Gibson Dunn forever & who led & won Bush v. Gore./1
@gibsondunn @CNN @Acosta Ted likes to take on big cases, and certainly this is that in terms of the 1st amendment. But Ted’s Gibson Dunn colleague @BoutrousTed is more specifically a renowned 1st amendment lawyer at the firm & nationally. Which leads me to think that Olson handling it (over Boutrous) /2
@gibsondunn @CNN @Acosta @BoutrousTed Has greater significance or meaning. To have one of the top 3 premier establishment Republican attorneys in the country lead the case against the White House sends a glaringly loud message: not just to the WH, but to the Republican Party as a whole, that this badge revocation /3

Thread: My thoughts re Rod are more aligned with these guys below than with some pundits who are quick to jump on Rod for using the word “superb.” Rod has made some big mistakes - Comey memo, Kavanaugh visible support, access to law enforcement sensitive documents, working for /1
This Administration in the 1st place... but he is still around and he is still keeping watch. He is the guy who hired Mueller in the 1st place, & did it behind Sessions’ & Trump’s back. He may be a “survivor” as described derogatorily by Comey, but he continues to do more /2
To preserve Mueller’s role than any other member of this Administration. We are not in his shoes. We don’t have all the info. But critiquing Rod & impugning his word choice undermines the guardrails he has maintained. He could have quit like Brand. He could go write a book. /3

#Trump's last campaign rally of the 2018 mid-term election season is scheduled to start in about ten minutes. It's his THIRD rally of the day. Dude is likely exhausted and I doubt this rally will be less "speech" and more "incoherent tirade".
At any rate, here's the thread for it! Follow/mute at will!
Current Pre-show music is the Rolling Stones' "Sympathy for the Devil." I couldn't make this up if I tried.

.@realDonaldTrump is such a disgrace to what America stands for, John McCain banned him from his funeral. Everyone’s there—Presidents Obama, Bush, Clinton—now at the National Catherdral to honor a great American. Trump? In his safe place—watching FoxNews and tweeting propaganda.
John McCain's pallbearers – including Russian dissident Vladimir Kara-Murza, Democrat Russ Feingold, former VP Joe Biden, actor Warren Beatty, former NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg, William Cohen—stand in attendance at the late senator's memorial service at National Catherdral in DC
Meghan McCain went there, fiercely: “We gather here to mourn the passing of American greatness—the real thing—not cheap rhetoric from men who will never come near the sacrifice he gave so willingly…nor opportunistic appropriation by those who lived lives of comfort and privilege

#Trump ajoute la controverse en fin d'1 déjà bien mauvaise soirée pour lui par ce tweet où il utilise 1 dog whistle (message suggéré)clair. Traiter de"dumb" (crétins) le présentateur de CNN Don Lemon et la star du #basket #LeBronJames, tous 2 Afro-Américains"parlera"à sa base. RT
2) En 2017, le General Social Survey de l'université de Chicago établissait que les 2 principaux clichés racistes sur les Afro-Américains- idiots et paresseux- avaient la vie dure chez les républicains. #Trump n'insulte pas #LeBronJames et #Lemon au hasard washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/w…
3) Quant au "#IlikeMike" cryptique de #Trump à la fin de son tweet, il indique sans nul doute la préférence du président pour Michael Jordan, l'ex-star du basket #NBA dont le rang de plus grand joueur de l'histoire est aujourd'hui contesté par #LeBronJames...
