Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S. C.) pushed back after President Donald Trump put him on the spot with a suggestion that a Senator or Congress member should call former President Barack Obama to testify on what he knew about Michael Flynn’s case.
“If I were a Senator or Congressman, the first person I would call to testify about the biggest political crime and scandal in the history of the USA, by FAR, is former President Obama,” he wrote in a Twitter post on Thursday morning. “He knew EVERYTHING.”
The president singled out Lindsey Graham, the chairman of Senate Judiciary Committee, to do it.
“Do it @LindseyGrahamSC, just do it. No more Mr. Nice Guy. No more talk!” he wrote.
Graham brushed aside Trump’s suggestions, saying that it’s not wise for the country.
“As to the Judiciary Committee, both presidents are welcome to come before the committee and share their concerns about each other. If nothing else it would make for great television,” he stated. “However, I have great doubts about whether it would be wise for the country.”
Graham also suggested it’s inappropriate for the sitting president to accuse his predecessor during the CCP virus pandemic, or vice versa.
