During a recent appearance on NBC’s *Meet the Press*, Senator Lindsey Graham reignited his fiery persona, this time taking aim at Republicans who are backing Kamala Harris for president in 2024. Graham, who became well-known for his passionate defense of Brett Kavanaugh during his Supreme Court confirmation hearings, didn’t mince words.
He blasted Harris as “the most radical nominee” in U.S. political history and expressed outright disbelief that any Republican would support her. Citing her role in progressive policies like the Green New Deal and Medicare for All, as well as her involvement in key decisions like the Afghanistan withdrawal, Graham questioned the loyalty of those Republicans.
Graham didn’t hold back during the interview, bluntly asking, “What the hell are you doing?” when addressing Republicans who’ve thrown their support behind Harris. He went on to argue that the real threat to America isn’t Donald Trump’s rhetoric, but the policies of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
From rising inflation to her role as border czar, Graham painted Harris as someone responsible for much of the chaos in the current administration. For him, the idea of another four years under Harris’s leadership is unbearable.

Interestingly, while the media continues to focus on Trump’s controversial statements—particularly his recent remarks about using the military to confront “radical-left lunatics”—Graham seemed unfazed. Instead, he doubled down on his argument that Republicans are winning not because of Trump’s rhetoric, but because of the tangible results they’ve delivered over the last four years.
Despite having clashed with Trump in the past, Graham made it clear that his support for Trump remains strong, primarily due to the policies he believes are driving Republican success.
Graham’s remarks also served as a call to action for Republican voters. He urged them to hold accountable any Republicans supporting Harris by backing primary challenges to remove them from office. In his view, such support crosses a line that no Republican should be willing to cross.
He compared the situation to that of Liz Cheney, implying that any Republican backing Harris should be “Cheney’ed” out of office. Graham’s message was simple: there’s no room for betrayal in the GOP.
