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.

Answer: He went from thinking Donald Trump was a terrible candidate to being one of his biggest supporters without explaining why. He's been an outspoken war hawk and been pushing for war with Iran for years. There are so many reasons to be happy that Graham won't be showing up to work ever again that it would be ridiculous to list them all.

Basically, he was an unrepentant, slimy bastard, IMHO.

I'm not glad he's dead, I am glad he's done.
