Graham attempts blackmail

He's in enough potential trouble for his part in the coup attempt.  Maybe Lindsey Graham should "go dark" for a while.

“If there’s a prosecution of Donald Trump for mishandling classified information, after the Clinton debacle… there’ll be riots in the streets,” Graham told former South Carolina congressman Trey Gowdy, who now hosts Fox News’ “Sunday Night in America.”

Trump shared a clip of the interview on Truth Social later Sunday evening.

[...]

Graham expressed concern that Trump is treated with “a double standard” and repeated his warning of riots regarding the Georgia special grand jury investigating attempts by Trump and his allies to overturn the 2020 election results in the state.

Graham himself has been subpoenaed in that probe in connection with phone calls made to Georgia election officials seeking to change the election results in the state.

“I’ve never been more worried about the law and politics as I am right now,” he added.

  The Hill
You should be worried, Lindsey. You're deeply implicated.

We've had riots in the streets many times in our recent history.  Signaling riots only makes sufficient preparation more likely.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.

UPDATE:


And, with the GOP, there's always a tweet...
