Washington (CNN)Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham said on Thursday that he opposes censuring Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer amid a controversy over comments the New York Democrat made about Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch.
Graham, a close ally of President Donald Trump, explained that his position on the issue is, in part, because Schumer walked back his remarks, but also because it could lead to Democrats attacking Trump.
"I don't want to start censuring everybody," the South Carolina Republican said, later adding, "If we start censuring him, they're going to want to censure Trump, and this stuff never ends."

I agree that Schumer should not be censured.
He should be arrested, prosecuted, and imprisoned.

There is something about Lindsay that has frustrated me much of the time, whether it be borders, illegals, never ending wars, protecting the swamp, and especially the esteemed Senate. Other times I’m glad he is on our side. Fundamentally I don’t trust him just as I don’t blindly trust all Republicans.
Hannity had him on last night and I was hoping he would ask him about censure. Time to take offensive and not worry about being put on defensive.
Another mouth from the south.....
Lindsay sure is a disappointment.
Yes, absolutely! Graham is such a waste. He needs to go.
Well, if President Trump ever threatens Justices Gorsuch and Kavanaugh the way that Schumer did, they should censure him.
At least Jeff Sessions never pretended that he was going to do anything.
seriously, republicans. All Trump did is talk about Biden’s corruption in the Ukraine, and that got him impeached.
Weak idiots.
Since 2003, Linda? You’ve been hogging it up long enough. Can you just leave?
Unipartarian unified against these great citizens in this great republic. I’d rather pull an American out of jail and give him your seat. He’d be more in touch with Americana.
Just because you’re not in prison, doesn’t mean your not a crook. Thanks for speaking up against the ARROGANT International Extortionist, Joementia...(since 1973).
POS
Never, all they ever elect are Cheap Labor Express stooges.
Can you tell I don’t like him?
Trump has never said anything even remotely close or illegal.
For a while I thought that maybe Graham would like to see some justice. But I was wrong. He is still only interested in protecting his own and place them above the law.
They flipping impeached him for a phone call. Linda graham is a worthless turd burgler.
YOU F-ING COWARD, GIRLIE MAN DEMOCRAT FRAUD CREEP!
“”If we start censuring him, they’re going to want to censure Trump”
Nah. The dems won’t mess around with censure they will just impeach him.
They IMPEACHED Trump, Lindsay!
Now that he is past the primary, he is going back to the real Linda.
The “Progressives” would NOT afford you the same courtesy, Lindsey.
