Forgive us for being blunt. If there were an award for foolish warmongering and mindless bellicosity, Senator Lindsey Graham would be a front-runner—he could even beat Ambassador John Bolton. His latest outburst isn’t just rhetoric; it’s a policy grenade. His call to “crush” BRICS economies with sweeping tariffs over Russian oil trade risks economic shockwaves and a diplomatic breakdown. Even President Trump has long warned about Graham’s hawkish streak, blasting him back in 2016 as “one of the dumbest human beings I’ve ever seen” who could “start World War III.” Nearly a decade later, Graham seems determined to prove Trump right.
