Lindsey Graham suggests Trump's defense team should focus on "the Bidens in the Ukraine"
Sen. Lindsey Graham, a Republican from South Carolina and ally of President Trump, sketched out a possible line of argument for the President's defense team to reporters today.
He said that while he thinks the House managers “have done a good job, particularly yesterday, of painting as I said, a tapestry, taking a series of events and telling a story," Trump's defense team will “start pulling on the threads.”
Graham went on to say that he would "really go hard at the idea that when they tell you there’s not a scintilla of evidence, groundless, baseless, phony accusations regarding the Bidens, I would challenge that very hard."
He continued: "I would take the Mueller report and say this is what the Trump family went through and this is the investigation of the Bidens in the Ukraine – a blank piece of paper. And I’d walk people through why somebody should look at this.”
“When the President said look at the Bidens, I think there’s a reason you should look at what happened with Hunter Biden in the Ukraine,” Graham said.
