Although President Trump and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) are still at odds over how to approach the Senate impeachment trial, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) seems to have made up his mind.
“What I would like to see happen for this thing to get over as soon as possible,” Graham said. “I don’t want to give it any legitimacy because it is a crock. I trusted Mueller, who is an outside entity, to look at all things Trump and Russia. He did for two years and took no action. Every impeachment except this one has been conducted by outside counsel.”
my order is awfully late.
“Let the House managers present their case. Let the President’s lawyers comment on the House case. Then vote,” Graham said. “I don’t have any desire to call the Vice President. I don’t have any desire to call Pompeo, Hunter Biden or Joe Biden. We can look at the Biden affair outside of impeachment. My goal is to end this as soon as possible for the good of the country. It’s a danger to the presidency to legitimize this,” he said.
So, House Republicans are complaining that no witnesses are being called by the Judiciary, but the Senate Republicans aren’t going to call any witnesses either, just have a couple lawyers present evidence and then vote? I guess that shouldn’t surprise anyone, a fair hearing of the evidence, and witnesses testifying that the House wasn’t allowed to call, would make Trump’s guilt even more evident. It’s to their benefit to give it all short shrift, yelling about all their nonsense to overwhelm the facts and evidence.
graham is going to need some tender loving care after this ordeal is over.

The bluster is in an inverse to the actual strength of Graham’s position.

Last month, Graham told Fox News host Sean Hannity that he “will not accept a trial in the Senate” until the identity of the whistleblower whose complaint sparked the impeachment inquiry is revealed.
