Are at the what passes for the moderate end of the GOP caucus. If the moderate end of the GOP caucus wants Sessions gone and Mueller gone, where is the senate GOP support for Mueller coming from? Corker, Flake, will both be gone in 3 months. Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski are far from the moderates they portray themselves to be. Do you really believe that John Cornyn of all people will be fighting for Mueller and Sessions it he knows Graham, Grassley, Collins won’t.

This is a fundamental change for Graham, who said that firing Mueller would end the Trump Presidency. Now he supports it.

Since when is exposing the Senate GOP for what they are Russian trollery?
