Sen. Lindsey Graham said he doesn't care if Trump told then-White House counsel Don McGahn to fire special counsel Robert Mueller — the Mueller investigation is over.

Sen. Lindsey Graham on Sunday said he doesn't care if President Donald Trump told then-White House counsel Don McGahn to fire special counsel Robert Mueller — the Mueller investigation is over.

"It's all theater — it doesn't matter," the South Carolina Republican told "Face the Nation" host Margaret Brennan. "I don't care what he said to Don McGahn — it's what he did. The president never obstructed.""It doesn't matter to you that the president is changing a version of events and some would say lying?" Brennan asked.

In a redacted version of Mueller's report, McGahn is reported to have said he refused to fire Mueller when ordered to do so by Trump. The president has denied he told anyone to fire McGahn,

Ah, no, the Mueller investigation is not over until the FULL, UNREDACTED MUELLER REPORT is released to all of us; the republicans got the full, unredacted report on Clinton, we demand the same

. LindseyGrahamSC is dirtbag like the rest of Trump crooked cohorts.

Lindsey Graham sucks the President's dick. We all knew that - but we just didn't want to picture it.

LG is over estimating his importance.. fighting for his place in the Repussys Republikkkan Party.. they are no longer The Grand Old Party.

Sen. Lindsey Graham R-SC, Said During Pres Bill Clinton's Impeachment Hearings 'Just Beacuse A Person Is President, Doesn't Mean They Can't Be Impeached For Obstruction of Justice & Lieing To Congress !! We Must Pursue These These Impeachment Proceedings !!' Not for Pres Trump !!

Lindsey Graham and the Republic Congress are accessories to the crime of obstruction by Donald Trump and should also be held accountable. The American people need to know Republicans in Congress are not honoring the Constitution nor the laws of this nation.

douchebag

Well i thought the lindsey graham was a better man and person than hes turning out to be. I always thought he believed in the constitution and the rule of law but it now appears that he is just another yes man for trump to get his dictatorship. GOOD JOB

Trump's lapdog back at it again. Otto Warmbier was ransomed and Trump lies about it. One way or another he authorized a payment to North Korea who beat Warmbier into a Coma. McGahn was thoroughly investigated by Mueller and did tell the truth. Trump is a pathological LIAR.

LindseyGrahamSC Your constituents need to get rid of you. Retweet Yourfired nomorelindset byebyeLG

Wimp

The end justifies the means.

Of course you dont...its not in your best interest.

Lindsey (the Parrot) Graham. Must have went and purchase some fake balls.

At least he is honest about his hypocrisy

This is shameful. No wonder that so many Americans distrust and disrespect Our politicians

Why not this is my country

The only thing Graham cares about is saving his hide in his 2020 re-election campaign. To do that he let Trump neuter him and now jumps like a puppet on a string whenever Trump pulls on him.

LindseyGrahams morals and conscience died with SenJohnMcCain

And we are over Linsey Graham. Vote him out!

What is Trump holding over you?

Applying the HillaryStandard

Oh so I don’t care if a murderer told someone he did it because the murder and investigation WITHOUT that evidence is over. ASININE!

Blowhard LindseyGrahamSC waffles on everything. America does not need more GOP nastiness in the Senate. Vote him out.

As a state there is little hope for South Carolina, it's yet another failure of the south, and Graham is a constant reminder.

Don't care will be made care' .. just sayin...

You should Lindsey Graham.... it’s called obstruction

Oh, isn’t that just the CUTEST thing for him to say!! GAG!

Morals and ethics - down the drain - way to go, lindsey !

It is NOT over Lindsey...

LindseyGrahamSC what’s in your closet? You do realize the truth eventually always comes out. Your day of reckoning is coming. Complicit

He doesn't care bc I didn't happen

But perfectly normal to flip out over a chance meeting between a candidate's spouse and the USAG (in front of others). Makes perfect sense. -derangedUSA

What a lawless individual! He’s a right-wing “anarchist”!

Idc that he doesn’t care. Do your job. Rule of law.

An investigation being over does not erase the facts. Graham has become excessively stupid since his mentor, John McCain, passed away.

When is was the other way round you would talk another tone...hypocrite speach

Lindsey when are you going to stop being Drumpfs lapdog !!!!!!

His views disqualify him as impartial and biased. Disregard of law in favor of criminal action is complicity. When is his time in office over so the street can devour him? Who has a pen of hungry pigs?

You think term limits aren’t necessary? On the judicial committee and he’s wanting to say it’s over? The report hasn’t been finished being looked at by Congress. It’s what they do. Investigators need to look at these corrupt Republicans in the Senate and any connections to Putin.

Graham has lost his mind, integrity, & honor! They were buried with Sen.McCain!

Time for public hearings, ala the Nixon era. Maybe Graham doesn’t give a damn bc he’s lining his pockets and afraid to lose re-election, but AmeticaCares - time to go up and over CorruptGOP, regardless of their recalcitrance

Poor LindseyGrahamSC his moral compass was buried with John McCain. He's did his soul to the devil. Let's donate to his opponent, harrisonjaime who can knock the pathetic creature out of his chair!!

Translation: I don't care what laws were broken by my team, only those that weren't broken by Hillary (but we can make her sound bad anyway).

Correct. It means absolutely nothing. More fake news. Truly amazing.

He irrelevant

Why not!

It's super adorbs how the TDS sufferers just fall for any storyline and toe a straight line that's absent being rational.

So ignorant. He should pull his head out if Trump’s ass and see what is really going on: the destruction of our democracy.

There is no one more exposed (by Trump) as being less then the world thought they were then Graham. We all knew what Trump was but the support this prejudice conman continues to have by so many Americans including Graham shocks the rest of the world Be better America 🇨🇦

There is no stopping the democrats. They will continue selling their bag of dirty legal tricks and their lap dogs in the MSM will wang their tails and faithful carry it regardless.

What does LindseyGrahamSC care about? Only his political future. I wonder if he has seen the play Hamilton? Reminds me of Burr.

The deed wasn't done How about wearing a wire to record the President

He's the Gramweasel

Politico pretending like Mueller was actually fired is really peak Politico. They lied to us for years and can’t handle the L. So their foaming at the mouth of “collusion” has morphed into “obstruction” and they still want to gaslight us. So lame.

The republicans are for breaking the law for their own gain they are the lawless party

Idiot.

He doesn't care tiny trump has lied over 10k times and growing at rate of 23 times a day, or that he's bad mouthed 'his' friend non draft dodger John McCain.....as long as he keeps his cushy job

Lindsey: you are the second ‘biggest’ hypocrite in the Senate. No one could ever top the hypocrisy of Mitch McConnell. Getting rid of you two would elevate the honor of the Senate tremendously. (But as soon as I say that, a few other republican names keep coming to mind).

What does Dranged Donald have on Lindsay? Russian money?

Being blackmailed by Trump and Russians?

Lindsey Graham does not respect the law or our rule of order. He should resign LindseyGrahamSC

Now he does care if Barack Obama committed Treason?

hypocrite LindseyGrahamSC

LindseyGrahamSC career is over. Such UnAmerican people do not belong in our Congress making decisions for our country! TraitorLindseyGraham

So says this champion of the rule of law. Lindsey, your JAG credentials are now stripped from your resume & you are left with the shambles of your lonely life. Honor lost is never regained. You did this to yourself bc you saw your life & self respect slipping away. Sad man, LG

LindseyGrahamSC not over. Not for you. Not for him and more importantly not for our nation. traitor

Well we Americans care.

I remember when LindseyGrahamSC was considered a man of integrity.

The Russian GrahamCracker, has flipped like a little girl gymnast, right after his visit to Moscow. Coincidence? I don't think so.

It’s this simple Lindsey—it’s just not over because you say it’s over! There are other factors—like “we the people”!

💩Jackass!

Translation: “I don’t care if Trump is a criminal. He’s a Republican and that’s all I care about, party, not country.”

That’s not obstruction but keep up with your narrative. Gotta sell Ads somehow smh

We do, Lindsey. Hold our beer.

Not. Sketchy. At. All.

His word is what?

VoteBlueNoMatterWho Get Graham out of government.

Tee time for Saturday!

LindseyGrahamSC is a traitor to his country for aiding & abetting the crimes of this president & allowing him to continue to obstruct justice. Talk about partisan, if this were a dem president he'd be ranting & raving how we need to impeach now, no one is above the law.

Crooked trump!

The justice start with a crime investigation. Then comes the trial. The Mueller report was not a trial. It was the investigation.

Lindsey has to go, he needs to be replaced by an American

Fire this punk.

No, old man, the investigation just got a proper start. Watch.

Yes moron the investigation is over, the repercussions are about to begin. Bye bye

So is your career.

All you do care about is your own ass.

LindseyGrahamSC isn’t the boss of us. We will decide for ourselves when the investigation is over. Speaking of deciding - we South Carolinians have decided it is time for Lindsey to retire from the senate.

Again LindseyGrahamSC Trump is your downfall.

The American people don’t care either, this is a man who knew that he was being framed, set up for entrapment and lied about 24/7 if he wanted to rant to his own Lawyer So Be it!!

He is terrible.

LindseyGrahamSC You should be absolutely ashamed of yourself...you’re, by far, the worst & most complicit Senator this country has seen. Your cowardly & incompetent ways are poisoning our gvt and America. You are a virus to Congress...& American voters are the cure! DISGUSTING!

But her emails, right, Senator? What happened to this man?

Since he lost his balls & spine Lindsey doesn't care about much these days..especially the USA

How much Russian money has flowed into grahams bank accounts?

sengraham2016, NO ONE CARES IF YOU ARE GAY, stop being blackmailed into being a traitor to your oath of office. You cannot keep supporting DerangedDonald any longer. Your legacy can be better than your current path. Repent!

You wish.

LindseyGrahamSC is a Hypocrite and Apathetic!

Also, Lindsay Graham:

Other than maintaining his profile on grinder, what does Senator Graham care about?

Can we all agree that Lindsey Graham’s dignity and moral compass also died on August 25, 2018?

Personal opinion is not laws and LAWS CARE

Shameless sycophant

Guess what! We don’t care what he thinks!!! Stupid is always in!!

What is so frightening to you LG? It’s destroying you regardless, your dark sinister secret. It’s clear you are manipulated, cuz you used to be smart. The truth shall set you free.

That's the problem, he and others don't care about Americans or America.

The man makes me vomit

Naw

There’s help out there Lindsey. Clearly you have lost power over something and your life has become unmanageable. Time to get honest with yourself.

Why should this loser be any different than the rest of the GOP! All of these minions are afraid of retribution from the big bad orange wolf. VoteThemOut

Hey Lindsey, that's not going to fly. What kind of malarkey is this? I thought you took a number of oaths. Blinded by the light or is it cold hard cash?

Folks THIS MAN HAS TO GO!!

Someone should play the video of Clinton impeachment every night at his house.

Just like the 2016 election is over. Right. Hypocrisy thy name is Lindsey Graham.

Something very powerful has a firm grip on this guy’s balls. He’s very afraid of something.

Got a love these red state politicians they’ll do anything to stay elected; just back the bigot,racist,liar and your in!

Lindsey's increase in the polls in his state is a direct result of his insane behavior which is what his racist and idiotic constituents want in their Senator.

This guy's a sad loser. A joke ...so much for the impression of him being a man. this is no man... he has no adherence to his own beliefs and he's bought and sold and then will be discarded just like fat greasy meat. Everything he say and do from this point is pointless.

Because obstruction of justice is no big deal - but a blow job between consenting adults? That's impeachable!

The Stalinist Mueller investigation should have never been

This is what ruining a legacy and reputation looks like.

What has Lindsey down for the people of South Carolina Lindsey is a parasite and tax payers should stop letting him feed off of them

But Hillary’s emails

Finally truth. Lindsey no longer supports the rule of law in America. Who’s surprised? Treason is ugly, isn’t it?

We don't care what he cares about.

He also said it doesn't matter because HE DIDNT FIRE HIM!

That what I like about Graham...always stands on principle and values...

Vote Graham out...when Trump told McGahn to fire the SC he obstructed justice..PERIOD. And everyone should care...Graham wouldn’t have looked the other way if it had been Obama. Hypocrite

I don’t care if LindseyGrahamSC keeps his job. GOPComplicit

Naa naa naa naa naa.

What can of idiot has Lindsay opened lately

This is someone who needs to be investigated.

Hypocrite

Don’t vote a weasel back in office

Lindsey has no soul, no shame and not one ounce of integrity! One of the most corrupt politicians in my lifetime....Mitch McConnell is by far the worst!

Whoever runs against him should play on a loop the total hypocrisy with Graham He stands for absolutely nothing

He doesn’t care about anything concerning his dictator

A true Russian patriot!

If you don’t learn from your mistakes.....you are destined to repeat them. Learning includes admission and responsibility

The Mueller probe is over and we need to move on. I don't want to see Trump reelected, so let's get busy with business. I would rather see Trump led out in handcuffs.!!!

If this was an investigation into Hillary, Obama or any other Dem, LindseyGrahamSC would be alongside every GOP member calling for further investigations or impeachment. Pathetic how broken our political system is today. hypocrites senatemajldr

In simple terms...he doesn’t care if Trump broke the law, that was then.

He doesn’t care care about anything but power. He’s been spitting bullshit for years and this is his time to shine. He is so incredibly vile and completely morally bankrupt🤮🤬🤮🤬🤮🤬

There is no expiry date on lies and bullshit..

You could have just ended the sentence after ”care”

Graham must go

John McCain would slap his friend silly.

LindseyGrahamSC knows there is no defense for what trump did so he’d prefer if we all just let it go. Sorry, Lindsey dear, that isn’t going to happen.

Wrong answer

At the end of all this, I hope we find out the dirt on Graham

Where’s the integrity of this “less” than a man... How could he have the nerve to let corruption prevail and a POTUS blatantly Lie to the People they serve!

So, what is the point of having a Constitution and laws?

WerthNear And just to add. There's nothing wrong done. The President had every right to fire Mueller if he so choosed. But he didn't.

Pull head Out .

If the IRS decides to audit me (please God no), I will tell them that year is over. Movin’ on

Once you align with a narcissist it's very difficult to back out. Ron Johnson is doing the same thing. 1st, they try to stay above it, then ignore it, then step in just a little. One toe is as good as all-in. The narcissist knows this. He then, rightly, knows they're weak.

Just to translate this to make sure everyone knows what he said, 'I dont care that he committed a felony.'

Lindsey Graham is a traitor and a Trump enabler.

It's over but Democrats won't let it die. They're deranged, obsessed, and still refuse to accept the results of an election 2.5 years ago. Let them keep it up. They'll create a red tsunami in 2020. [Follows appreciated!]

How many times a day are you going to re-tweet the same news? ONCE IS ENOUGH!

If you go by that way of thinking, the 2016 election has been over for 2+ years, why is he still trying to investigate Hillary, who by the way was investigated and no wrong doing found?

I can’t wait to see what the Russians have on LindseyGrahamSC Traitor ImpeachmentHearingsNOW

but he really really cares about the Clinton email investigation.

Sometimes I really hope I’m wrong about my atheist beliefs...... because I’d really love to be there when all these assholes burn in hell 😉

Not caring: It's the new way Senator Graham intends to support and defend' the US Constitution.

Investigation is Over, but justice is expected to debate sentence for High Traitor Attitude

Hypocrites that’s been in DC way too long. Vote him out
