This is a lynching in every sense. This is un-American, Graham said to reporters.
Ive never seen a situation in my lifetime as a lawyer where somebody is accused of a major misconduct who cannot confront the accuser, call witnesses on her behalf and have the discussion in the light of day so the public can judge, he said.
Graham made his comments after Trump caused a firestorm by tweeting that the House impeachment inquiry is a lynching.

(16,786 posts)Democratic Party Senate Candidate, Jamie Harrison, should point out that Lindsey Graham is DEPLORABLE. His support of Trump, his choice of words regarding the Impeachment process taking place, is nothing in comparison to the senseless killing of blacks for no other reason than for the co,or of their skins.
If voters in South Carolina side with Lindsey Graham on this, that shows they have not
rogressed forward in over 200 years.

(82,849 posts)There haven't even been public hearings taking testimony and receiving evidence. No one has been formally accused of anything at this point, Senator. You're a lawyer and this has to be explained to you? Are you irretrievably stupid or just being willfully obtuse?
