LGJM Unhinged

Yesterday Senator McCain, on the floor of the Senate, said that Senator Rand Paul now works for Vladimir Putin, this for an argument over puny Montenegro's addition to NATO. Montenegro will not add anything except cost and NATO suffers from from attacks from what John Bolton calls the EUroids.
On MSNBC Senator Paul responded...
Well you know, I think he makes a really, really strong case for term limits. I think maybe he’s past his prime, I think maybe he’s gotten a little bit unhinged.
Rand Paul: McCain ‘past his prime,’ may be ‘unhinged’
Paul suggests that McCain is unhinged, but I would say that he is consistent. He and Lindsey Graham act as if they hold a monopoly on military foreign policy, and have no qualms about criticizing anybody that does not follow the military complex dogma. They have openly criticized President Bush, President Obama, President Trump and any Congressman that dares take a stand in defiance of their supposed wisdom. Both are huge saber rattlers, plenty of bark and no bite.
Neither Senator has a positive reputation as a national spokesman for anything.
Both Senators have the distinction of running the worst Presidential campaigns in the last 36 years.
So, borrowing from the LGBT acronym and adapting, we have LGJM for Lindsey Graham and John McCain, who now represent the ever-present RINO leadership.
By the way, while I generally disagree with the foreign policy positions of Libertarians, in this case I am in agreement. NATO has become a bloated military alliance that grown too far beyond its charter.
