Sen. Lindsey Graham, one of Donald Trump’s most ardent defenders on Capitol Hill, argued Sunday that in the wake of the former president’s unprecedented federal indictment most conservatives see the case as politically motivated and Trump will emerge “stronger” in his reelection campaign.
Graham, at times testy in his back-and-forth with ABC “This Week” anchor George Stephanopoulos, was repeatedly pressed about specific allegations against Trump regarding Trump’s handling of classified information while out of office — including, prosecutors say, being recorded discussing a government secret with others while acknowledging it was still classified.
“I don’t know what happened, I haven’t heard the audio,” Graham, R-S.C., said, later adding when pressed by Stephanopoulos: “I’m not saying it’s OK.”

President Trump will have his day in court but espionage charges are absolutely ridiculous.
Whether you like Trump or not, he did not commit espionage.
He did not disseminate, leak or provide information to a foreign power or news organizations to damage this country.

He is not a spy. He is overcharged.
Did he do things wrong? Yes, he may have. He will be tried about that.
But Hillary Clinton wasn’t.

Most Republicans believe we live in a country where Hillary Clinton did very similar things and nothing happened to her.
