Lindsey Graham called Trump 'a lying motherf***er' during Ukraine impeachment:
Lindsey Graham called Trump ‘a lying motherf***er’ during Ukraine impeachment, book reveals
Authors Peter Baker and Susan Glasser report that Mr Graham used the vulgar phrase to describe Mr Trump in the midst of the inquiry that led to his first impeachment trial.

Standing on the sidewalk on 19th Street in Northwest Washington, Mr Graham bragged about his access to Mr Trump and told the husband-and-wife author duo about Mr Trump’s boasts regarding his closeness with evangelical pastors who’d met with him the day before. He said Mr Trump had told him: “Those f***ing Christians love me”.
Mr Graham had already declared that it would be “insane” for Democrats to impeach Mr Trump over the Ukraine controversy, but he confided to Mr Baker and Ms Glasser that he was not blind to what the then-president had done.
“He’s a lying motherf***er,” Mr Graham said, adding the caveat that Mr Trump was also “a lot of fun to hang out with”.
Continuing, the senator justified his defence of the then-president by noting that he was the leader of the Republican Party.“He could kill fifty people on our side and it wouldn’t matter,” he said.
