What's perplexing about Graham is that he had a reputation as an intelligent, responsible conservative pre-Trump. He was even one of Trump's harshest critics during the primaries. Then after the election he drops to his knees. He could have worked with Trump while still maintaining some distance, like his good friend John Mccain. If he's not being blackmailed, he sure behaves like he is.

It's not perplexing at all. He and the other high-level Republican suddenly-Trumpers made a pretty simple calculation: If we treat Trump like the vicious, stupid narcissist that he actually is, we'll be admitting that our party is under the control of insane morons and is responsible for bringing the very nature and legitimacy of US democracy into question. On the other hand, if we treat Trump like he's a true Republican standard-bearer, as any president of one's party should be treated, then we'll be able to cram through appointments and policies that we like.

When it comes to retaining the support of their own party, up until now, they've made the right choice from a tactical point of view, if not a moral or ethical one. Even if the Republicans end up folding as a going concern in the next 10 years (I consider this a real possibility given how they've let straight-up crazies take over the policies of their party), they'll still have put enough conservative nuts into lifetime judgeships that it'll be another 10 years after that before we fully recover from this 4-year waking nightmare.
 
Trump Says

"I see again the forest fires are starting. They're starting again in California. You've gotta clean your floors, you've gotta clean your forests, maybe we're gonna have to make them pay for it."
 
"He abandoned Scranton" Trump is attacking Joe Biden for leaving Scranton when he was 10 years old, like it was his choice.
 
The Post Office arresting Steve Bannon is the 2020 plot twist you didn't know you needed

Like it would matter if it wasn't. It's usually just called "moving." Also, didn't Trump recently "abandon" New York City?

Trump shows off a unique combination of rank stupidity and the desire to take a dump all over Americans if he thinks they don't like him.

Trump asks Supreme Court to let him block people on Twitter

"His administration argued in a high-court filing made on Thursday that the president's @realdonaldtrump page is his personal property.

It claims blocking people from the account - which has more than 85 million followers - is akin to elected officials who refuse to allow their opponents' yard signs on their front lawns.

"President Trump's ability to use the features of his personal Twitter account, including the blocking function, are independent of his presidential office," acting Solicitor General Jeffrey Wall insisted in the filing."

We are United in our effort to defeat the Invisible China Virus, and many people say that it is Patriotic to wear a face mask when you can’t socially distance. There is nobody more Patriotic than me, your favorite President!

President @realDonaldTrump: In Biden’s policy manifesto written with socialist Bernie Sanders, Biden pledges to OUTLAW American oil, coal, and natural gas.

President @realDonaldTrump: If you want a vision of your life under Joe Biden, imagine the smoldering ruins of Minneapolis, the violent anarchy of Portland and the bloodstained sidewalks of Chicago coming to every city and town in America.

He can't simultaneously call it his personal property and official presidential account.
 
Trump Tweets

They are sending out 51,000,000 Ballots to people who haven’t even requested a Ballot. Many of those people don’t even exist. They are trying to STEAL this election. This should not be allowed!

The Democrats are demanding Mail-In Ballots because the enthusiasm meter for Slow Joe Biden is the lowest in recorded history, and they are concerned that very few people will turn out to vote. Instead, they will search & find people, then “harvest” & return Ballots. Not fair!

It’s Not his personal anything. Twitter owns it, they are simply providing an outlet for whatever they arbitrarily decide to allow.

Jesus. Republicans just hate capitalism
 
"Mr. Bannon was arrested on the yacht of the CHINESE billionaire Guo Wengui off the coast of Connecticut early Thursday, becoming the latest person linked to Mr. Trump to be indicted during his presidency."
