Former Vice President Joe Biden said Sunday morning that he is 'disappointed' in Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., for bowing to political pressure
WASHINGTON – Former Vice President Joe Biden said Sunday morning that he is"disappointed" in Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., for bowing to political pressure.
Graham, who has become one of President Donald Trump's staunchest supporters on Capitol Hill, was critical of Biden during Trump's impeachment trial and after the acquittal, saying last week that"the day of reckoning is coming for congressional and Senate oversight of Joe Biden." They believe that Biden pushed for the firing of a top Ukrainian prosecutor while he was vice president in order to benefit his son. Biden opposed the prosecutor because he was weak on tackling corruption cases, an opinion shared by international anti-corruption groups. .Biden said Sunday morning that he was "stunned" by how Graham"responded under pressure" when Trump attacked the late Sen. John McCain. The two Republican Senators were friends.
Trump has long been critical of the Arizona Senator and claimed he “didn’t get a ‘thank-you’” for giving McCain “the kind of funeral that he wanted.” Trump did not attend McCain's funeral at the family's request.
