This whole affair didn't jibe from the get go, and now that you mention it it makes way more sense. Trump would have to have known Lyndsey would get booed by the MAGA crowd, but had him up there anyway?

Also telling that me mentions Graham being "okay". Graham maybe somehow compromised and this is now a new version of the pillory punishment? Or maybe as an "example" to others about who is control? Like you said, no politician, especially one as seasoned as Graham, would voluntarily walk into a situation like that.
