Senator Lindsey Graham is probably missing being confronted by liberal activists in public after he was shouted at by a mob of Trump supporters at the Reagan National Airport in Virginia. The angry crowd followed him through the terminal, calling him a traitor, a sex trafficker, and a “son of a b—h,” among other things.

In video captured by one of the Trump supporters, Graham can be seen walking hunched over with his head bowed as his security rushes him to the elevator.

“Lindsey Graham, you are a traitor to the country,” says one prominent voice. “You know it was rigged, you know it was rigged! You know it was rigged, you garbage human being. It’s going to be like this forever wherever you go for the rest of your life.”
Others can be heard accusing Graham of being a sex trafficker, a common accusation to come out of the QAnon conspiracy theory, which claims there is a massive underground government-run human trafficking ring.

This response to Graham from Trump supporters comes after the senator finally broke with the outgoing president on his election fraud claims after they led to the assault on the Capitol on Wednesday.
“From my point of view, he’s been a consequential president,” he said Wednesday night. “But today, first thing you’ll see. All I can say is, count me out. Enough is enough. I’ve tried to be helpful.”
It hasn’t been confirmed who owns the loudest voice in the video, but it appears to have been originally posted and claimed by popular right-wing actress and mouthpiece Mindy Robinson.
“Lindsey Graham just made the mistake walking by me and a mass of angry patriots at the airport in DC,” she wrote in a tweet that has been restricted by Twitter. “All America wants is for you to AUDIT OUR VOTE and purge this election of this massive corruption…and you won’t do it. We’re not letting this “slide” so expect more of this.”

Graham has not yet tweeted about the events at the airport, which stands in stark contrast to his reaction after two liberal women approached him at an airport to condemn his support of Judge Amy Coney Barrett in October. Back then, Graham was appalled that the women called Barrett “racist & unqualified” and called them and the entire political left “hostile & unhinged.”
Compared to the Trump supporters at the Reagan National Airport, the women from October were rather polite to the senator.

“Sir, you’re an example of how things are getting out of control, sir,” said one of them. “You work for me, sir. I pay your salary, sir.”
Neither of them called him a sex trafficker or any cuss words.
