Rumour has it that with one child in college and another about to be, the lovely Nikki wants to re-enter the private sector and make some money....after 14 years straight of public service.
Speaking of Racist Fuckwad Trolls....  More likely she wants to be available when Graham gets that cabinet post he has been down on all fours, ass high, looking coquetishly over his shoulder at Trjmp for the last year to try to get.
Graham had a splendid Joseph Welch moment in defense of Kavanaugh and he is likened by you to a Racist Fuckwad Troll or (by NBC) as gay? How predictable from the judgmental left.
Man I’d call his statements as grand slam home runs off mob rule pitching.

It’s either your syphilis or fucking terrible information diet that has you fucked up. Joseph Welch never sold out his country non did he work to support elevating McCarthy or anyone like him to the Supreme Court.

Please Keep Joseph Welch’s name out of your mouth when you are trying to rehabilitate amoral sellouts like Lindsey Graham.

Also Ultey would probably like to peg you. Are you game?

I think he's immoral, not amoral.

In the realm of “ I told you so” just remember I pointed out that Schumer’ s Gorsuch-resistance led to blowing up the SCOTUS filibuster when it could have been saved for later.

That was a colossal democrat blunder.

Yeah, they could have rubber-stamped Gorsuch and then had the filibuster eliminated for Kavanaugh.

That way, instead of having Gorsuch and Kavanaugh, like we do now, we could have Gorsuch and Kavanaugh!

Wow, Redd, such a brilliant idea.

Why, Mr. Priest…..You aren’t trying to insinuate that dear Little Lindsey might be, gasp!, part of the ferocious closeted gay underground of the Republican Party are you? I should like to point out to you that just because a man is 63 years old has had no known associations with any woman….well….that doesn’t make him gay. He could be just bidding his time….looking for the perfect Southern belle to accompany him on his journey through life and the beautiful world of Republican politics. And I, for one, wish him well in his search. 63 isn’t dead yet, but it is getting to be kind of late in life to find Miss Right (no pun intended).
I,had forgotten those insinuations about Graham, though for some reason the idea that he looks like an old lesbian has stuck. Who what or if he actually prefers is none of my concern.

He does seem to have e the scruples of a Catholic bishop.

Not under a republican administration. Just be as big a douchebag as possible and do whatever you can to wreck the US’s international standing and make life shittier for as many people around the globe as possible. The last step is to get out before auditors and investigators step in.

It’s not like she was there to do any good.

No, they would have just blown it up now.

Why did Nikki resign?

Could very well be

What is the usual length of service for the position she is leaving?  Seems to me it would be quite taxing.

She's below average, though the average for GOP Ambassadors to the UN is shorter than for the Dems over the last 40 or so years.

Whether  taxing or not, it is seldom more than a 4 year position. A couple of the early ones went 6 years.

Well, yeah...

One day, hopefully some day soon the Dems will realize “moving toward the center” means GOP lite and just like Coke, folks want the real thing so they’ll vote GOP.
