    Of course, there’s also the incentive of funding the military industrial complex which also lines politicians’ pockets.

    If I were to hazard a guess, Graham is trying to navigate a position that’s acceptable to both establishment republicans and Trump republicans. I don’t think it’s that he’s a Russian asset so much as that he’s playing a political game. Personally, of course, I despise him. But I do stand by the article being shit even if his support for Ukraine is purely performative.

      Yeah, the article is shit. I see a bunch of articles that are just a vomit of reddit posts these days, and it just makes me die a little on the inside every time. WTF is journalism anymore?
