Joy Reid reacts to the death of U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham with remarks that criticize how media outlets portray and mourn political figures. In her comments, Reid says “hell opened its doors for at least one more,” framing her response as personal satisfaction rather than traditional condolence. She also argues that Graham “sold his soul” to President Donald Trump, adding that his actions aligned him with the president. According to reporting, Reid calls out media coverage that she characterizes as eulogizing Graham, contrasting her own tone with what she portrays as the mainstream press approach. Separately, Mediaite reports Reid is openly discussing how she feels following Graham’s death and indicates she will “celebrate his life,” while other anchors and reporters offer mourning or tributes. Both outlets describe Reid’s remarks as sharply worded and dismissive of the media’s reaction to Graham’s death.
