Sen. Lindsey Graham publicly ended his relationship with the president following the tragic riots on Capitol Hill, which led to the tragedy.
After his public breakup with the president on Friday, Sen. Lindsey Graham was verbally harassed by at least a dozen Donald Trump supporters at Reagan National Airport, according to a witness who provided video of the incident.
The South Carolina Republican was repeatedly yelled at as a “traitor” by several people, including a lady who labeled him a “fraud” and a man who shouted, “You work for the people, you work for us, do you hear me?
They agreed not to approach him because he was protected by security.
It was impossible to quickly identify the individuals yelling at Graham, and it’s not known if they were present for the Trump protest on Wednesday that descended into a deadly riot on Capitol Hill.
Several of the Trump supporters followed Graham as he walked around the airport with security guards.
You won’t be able to cross the street one day. It is today,” shouted one woman who was disobeying airport regulations by not donning a mask. She was sporting a labeled “I adore Trump” t-shirt with the letter “Q” on the back, maybe alluding to the QAnon hoax.
Mindy Robinson, a conservative activist, and actress posted another video on Twitter of Graham at the airport, with the commentary: “Lindsey Graham just made the mistake walking by me and a mass of angry patriots at the airport in DC. All America wants is for you to AUDIT OUR VOTE and purify this election of this tremendous corruption…and you won’t do it. We’re not letting this ‘slide’ so expect more of this.”
On Wednesday night, Graham, who has often played golf with Trump and tried to influence his policy decisions, broke with the president, saying: “From my point of view, he’s been a consequential president. You’ll notice it first today, though. All I can say is, count me out. It’s enough already.
Graham’s spokesperson Kevin Bishop declined to respond, stating that “we don’t discuss security problems.”
Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah), who was traveling to Washington, D.C. from Salt Lake City on Tuesday, was repeatedly called a “traitor” by Trump fans because he refused to back any efforts to overturn President-elect Joe Biden’s victory. At the airport, a different Trump supporter had approached Romney and referred to him as “a joke, total joke, it’s a nasty shame.”
