"Half of what Trump does is not OK," he said Thursday on "This Morning." "If you are trying to convict him for being a bull in a China shop, crude and rude, you'd win."
"A lot of this stuff troubles me, but it is not a crime," Graham added.
Graham said Wednesday that Comey's opening statement for his hearing at the Senate intelligence committee shows "there is no obstruction of justice case" against Trump.
"What prosecutor in their right mind would allow their star witness to go out before the Senate panel of 20 senators and get beat up if he really believed he had a case?" he asked in an interview with Fox News. "This is the best evidence yet that in the mind of the special counsel, there is no obstruction of justice case to be made against President Trump. All in all, it's a pretty good day for President Trump."
