Sen. Lindsey Graham does not believe that Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is seeking the truth in this impeachment process.
Instead, Graham says the Schumer’s goal is to take back the Senate. But that did not work out so well with the impeachment of former President Clinton.
Back then Graham said “We lost five seats as Republicans when we impeached Clinton. People thought we went too far.”
Graham also criticized House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s actions after she sent over the articles of impeachment to the Senate.
He claims that Pelosi was not finished but still “spiked the ball at halftime.” Graham added, “I think 2020 is going to be a blowout.”
More from The Daily Wire:
Graham started by explaining what was to come next in the impeachment process:
Well, the House will be able to make their case for 24 hours; hopefully we do this in a couple of days.
Then the defense team of the president will be able to make their case based on the record established in the House.
Then they’ll be an effort to call witnesses, to ask for documents, and I hope that nobody will be called as a witness because every witness being requested by the Democrats were available to the House.
They chose not to call them.
Executive privilege applies to all these witnesses.
So I’m hoping this can be done in about a week and I predict a bipartisan acquittal of President Trump.
