The chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee explained that he wants the trial to be quick and that expects nothing to come of it, with the GOP solidly behind fighting impeachment of the president.
During the interview Graham stated, This thing will come to the Senate, and it will die quickly, and I will do everything I can to make it die quickly.
I am trying to give a pretty clear signal I have made up my mind. Im not trying to pretend to be a fair juror here, Graham said, adding, What I see coming, happening today is just a partisan nonsense.
Personally I think President Trump will come out of this stronger and the good news is that everybody in politics in America needs to prove to the American public were not all completely crazy. So there may be a spirit of compromise coming post-impeachment, born of political necessity, if anything else, he added.

(1,733 posts)Republicans have acted so honorably and honestly, how could we do otherwise?
I'm certain Senator Graham will do everything he can to bring us together behind President Trump, as we march in lockstep into the abyss of failed nationhood.
