Weird.
I never thought Lindsey Graham was only 71 years old?
I am 74 and soon to be 75, and am a lot more fit and still do not even have grey hair yet.

He's called the Grim Reaper? Then why's he always smiling?

I generally think of the long-tenured MOC, aka old fogies as my seniors.
For most of my life I've been correct.

President Obama may have been an above average president. By the Reagan standard: "Are you better off ...?" Obama surely was. BUT !
In my entire lifetime, U.S. presidents have been older than me, to this day except
President Obama was younger.
 
"The mob* was fed lies. They were provoked by the president [Trump] and other powerful people. And they tried to use fear & violence to stop a specific proceeding of the first branch of the [U.S.] federal government which they did not like." Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) in proper decorum, reading written text on the senate floor, addressing Trump's 21/01/06 armed insurrection: broadcast PBS Tues. 21/01/19 (the day before Biden's inauguration), video-sound bite corroborated & extended by FOX FNS 21/01/24

* the mob of armed insurrectionists that ransacked the capitol including Speaker Pelosi's office, ostensibly intending to delay or prevent the Biden inauguration

The meme quotes Senator Graham [deceased] suggesting Senator Graham did not vote to convict at Trump's second impeachment.
Neither did Senator McConnell quoted above.
