BOOK: Graham Called Trump “A Lying Motherfucker”

Axios reports:

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) called his friend Donald Trump “a lying mother—-er” but “a lot of fun to hang out with,” according to “The Divider,” by Peter Baker and Susan Glasser, out next Tuesday. Graham said it with “a what-can-you-do shrug,” the authors report — the mindset of so many Trump allies and enablers.

The big picture: “The Divider” — a sweeping, dishy, 700-plus-page history of “Trump’s almost cartoonishly chaotic White House” — shows he came close to taking several rash military actions. The book draws on 300 new interviews (including two with Trump) plus diaries, memos, contemporaneous notes, emails and text messages.

“White House chief of staff John Kelly was so furious when Trump refused to lower the flag after John McCain died that he told the president: ‘If you don’t support John McCain’s funeral, when you die, the public will come to your grave and piss on it.'”https://t.co/R6stInxFrR
