Lindsey Graham: Trump Arrest Will 'Blow Up Country'

March 22, 2023

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina spoke his mind about the impending arrest of former President Donald Trump.

Graham said that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s potential indictment of former President Donald Trump is a "bunch of B.S."

Graham added that he thinks it will blow up the country.

Fox and Friends co-host Brian Kilmeade asked, "Are you concerned about District Attorney Bragg, Alvin Bragg indicting President Trump next week in an unpredicted way and the circus there would be around that?"

"Yeah, it will blow up our country, and this is a bunch of B.S." Graham said.

"You’ve had the prosecutor before, Bragg. Mr. Vance looked at the case and passed on it. You had the U.S. attorney in New York say, 'I won’t do it federally.' There was an intervening cause other than Trump running. One of the guys in the D.A.’s Office wrote a book very critical of Vance, 'You should have prosecuted Trump, you let him off,' and Bragg feels that pressure," Graham added.

"He is a George Soros-backed prosecutor. He can’t take the heat, so the guy is yielding to political pressure generated by the former prosecutor. And this is a case without merit, in my view. Donald Trump will be the only person in the history of New York prosecuted under this theory," Graham concluded.
