'Nobody believes that China would be fair to Biden,' Graham said, 'Trump, me or you, or anybody.'
GOP Senator Lindsey Graham this week criticized President Donald Trump for publicly asking China to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden in an interview with Axios., the South Carolina Republican called the president's move"stupid" and a"bad idea.""As to asking China to look into Biden, that was stupid," he said."Nobody believes that China would be fair to Biden, Trump, me or you, or anybody. Bad idea. That didn't last very long.
Graham's remarks were made after Swan asked him to comment on GOP Senator Mitt Romney calling Trump's actions related to Ukraine and China"wrong and appalling." In his response, Graham implied that he did not believe that the president's actions amounted to an impeachment offense."Well if you think the letter is impeachable, I mean the transcript, just say so," he said."If you don't like it, that's fine.
Although he did not ask Chinese President Xi Jinping directly, Trump's public call for an investigation into Biden's family mirrors his controversial July phone call with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky, during which he asked his foreign counterpart to probe Biden's son, Hunter Biden. The call is at the heart of a formal impeachment inquiry into Trump, launched by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi late last month.
