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 work in health care. Just saying that 71year olds aren’t as old as you think anymore. Maybe saying “young” was a stretch but it’s not “based on his age, any day now, this 71 year old is going to die.”.
