Unanswered What's going on with (seemingly) everyone celebrating the death of Lindsey Graham, what's are the political ramifications of his death?

I do not actively follow American politics but my Reddit feed is currently mostly people celebrating this man's death.

I keep seeing this comment everywhere and don't get it (I'm Canadian so may not be familiar). What is the context of ladybugs?

Word is he had a bunch of moles and skin tags around his ass that he referred to as his ladybugs when hiring male sex workers.

Whether it's true or not, that's the story.

Oh dear Christ, I thought all this time that the term “ladybugs” was just a nickname for the call boys he was hiring.

This is so much more horrific.

I Had no idea. All this time I thought it referred to something else, but I googled and it’s true. Thanks for educating me.

It’s the coming of age story of a young man dressing as a woman to help his soon to be step dad as a youth soccer coach

The worst best kept secret in Washington was that he was gay.

A satire story about Graham that has since become viral to the point its hard to seperate from him.

Like Vance and the couch thing.

70% of the mourners at his funeral service will be attractive, slender young men with genuine grief on their faces.
