I think he was mainly upset about Sessions though. Right before saying the above, he went into a long tirade about how holy a saint the AG is and has always been.

And then proceeds to do absolutely nothing. Trump knows this and is now probably more motivated to fire Mueller, just so that he can watch Graham, McCain, etc. cave.

...and both have their "fold like a cheap chair at a church social" merit badges.

Neither Graham nor McCain will do anything, no matter how noxious or illegal tRump* gets unless some reich-wing, conservative think tank or polling organization tells them it may be politically expedient to do so. Courage IS NOT on either's resume.

Perhaps you missed that little qualifier at the end of Graham's quote. Remember it, because he will be pulling it out to excuse away tRump's eventual firing of Mueller.

I've heard Lindsay Graham say many things.

Some of them even sound good, or courageous.

And then he inevitably acts in a manner diametrically opposed to whatever "good" or "courageous" thing he just said.
