Incredible. If we RT this 50k times, Lindsey Graham will dematerialize like the transporter accident in the first Star Trek movie. What a heroic lifetime of service.

BREAKING: #LindseyGrahamResign has been tweeted out over 20,000 times since @TheDemCoalition started to promote it this morning. Graham SHOULD resign. Him telling Don Jr to ignore a Senate subpoena is more than enough to warrant his resignation. Everyone who retweets this agrees.
