Lindsey Graham slammed Mitch McConnell and other Republican leaders in the Senate on Wednesday as the House began debate to impeach President Donald Trump a second time.

In a lengthy statement, delivered the day after Graham traveled to Texas with President Trump to visit a new section of the border wall, the senator argued: 'The last thing the country needs is an impeachment trial of a president who is leaving office in one week.'

Graham, a staunch Trump ally, warned another impeachment trial 'could invite further violence' and decried Democrats for wanting to do a 'do-over impeachment.'

I suspect Graham may have been on the receiving end of a “Well, how now gentlemen...” conversation with Trump.

Graham is trying to protect Tim Scott who is on the ballot in 2022 and planning a POTUS run in 2024.

I didn’t expect to be on Linda’s side in a spat with Cocaine Mitch. Strange times for sure.

You can always count on Lindsay to get tough in battles he can’t win.

I love how Trump plays with Lindsey. Like a cat playing with a rat before he snaps his neck.

Didn’t Graham say, “I’m out”. “When it comes to accountability, the president needs to understand that his actions were the problem, not the solution,” Graham said last Thursday. He also suggested that his relationship with Trump had come to an end.

He did win. McConnell backed down and said there will be no time for a trial in the Senate.
