Opinion by Paul Waldman and Greg Sargent: What Lindsey Graham’s call to “take out” Putin says about GOP “strength”
in Ukraine could end, it’s unlikely to be a joyous victory for the forces of liberty. The best possible settlement for the Ukrainian people is almost certainly one that will allow Putin, in some fashion, to save face. In fact, there may befor the conflict to end. So what Putin cares about, feels and fears is of great concern to the whole world.
Republicans know that perfectly well. But if and when the invasion does end, Graham and his Republican colleagues will rush to the cameras to say everything would have gone much better had President Biden not been so “weak.” There’s no question that on barstools around the country, people are saying “Somebody’s gotta take Putin out.” But the difference between your uncle saying it and a prominent U.S. senator saying it is that in the eyes of the world — especially in the eyes of Putin himself — that represents, if not the position of the U.S. government, an indication of what might one day be the position of the U.S. government.
