Graham defends McCain amid Trump attacks: 'Nothing about his service will ever be changed'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) defended John McCain as "one of the most consequential senators" in history amid renewed attacks from President Trump against his late friend and GOP colleague.

"As to @SenJohnMcCain and his devotion to his country: He stepped forward to risk his life for his country, served honorably under difficult circumstances, and was one of the most consequential senators in the history of the body," Graham tweeted on Sunday.

"Nothing about his service will ever be changed or diminished."

Graham, who is an ally of the president and was one of McCain's closest friends in the Senate, spoke out hours after Trump issued his second tweet in as many days targeting McCain.

Nothing has changed Lindsey other than that Trump has replaced McCain as the alpha male in your life.

8. Graham should have defended his OWN honor, no less McCain's.

He needed to directly address Trumpy for despicable comments he made about a fellow veteran.

And speaking of veterans, how can any veteran still be enamored with Trumpy? He has no respect for military service, no respect for patriotic duty.
