Graham continues to move the goalposts

Last month, the South Carolina senator told reporters that they’d be “very disappointed” if they were looking for an explicit quid pro quo with Ukraine.

“If you’re looking for a circumstance where the President of the United States was threatening the Ukraine with cutting off aid unless they investigated his political opponent, you’d be very disappointed,” Graham said. “That does not exist.”

Now that multiple credible witnesses from inside the Trump administration have confirmed that the quid pro quo does, in fact, exist, Graham is changing his tune.

Graham’s new strategy isn’t to deny that Trump committed any impeachable offenses; we now know that he has. The new plan from the South Carolina senator is just to ignore any piece of evidence or testimony – and there is quite a bit – that incriminates the president.

It’s a shameful abdication of responsibility from a man that was once respected by John McCain.
