“I’m in a good place with Pete, unless something I don’t know about comes out. These allegations are disturbing, but they’re anonymous. I asked him point blank, ‘Were you drunk in a bar and got up and, said, ‘Let’s kill all the Muslims’? He said, ‘No.’
“But about mismanagement of money, about, you know, having a drinking problem and saying inappropriate things. All of these are anonymous allegations. He’s given me his side of the story. It makes sense to me. I believe him.
“Unless somebody is willing to come forward, I think he’s going to get through. Remember Kavanaugh? Five people accused Justice Kavanaugh of misconduct. Three were outright lies. The other two, I think, we’re not credible.
“So we’re not going to let that happen to Pete. You’re not going to destroy his nomination based on anonymous sources. People have to come forward and make credible allegations, and we’ll see if they do.” – Sen. Lindsey Graham, today on Meet The Press.
