Graham, McCain want answers on Sessions-Russia report
Source: CNN
But Graham deflected a question about a Washington Post report that Sessions twice spoke with the Russian ambassador to the United States during the 2016 presidential campaign, saying he needs to know more.
"If there were contacts between the Trump campaign and Russian officials, they may be legitimate; they may be OK. I want to know what happened between the Trump campaign, the Clinton campaign and the Russians," Graham told CNN's Dana Bash at a town hall in Washington with Sen. John McCain.

(9,426 posts)The gop side have ALWAYS been flexible, especially when BRIBES are involved. They will never admit their leader is a loser - BIGLY. So pay up, and we stand behind you. Once they realize this stench will stick around for the next couple of elections, maybe someone will find their "conscience"? Meanwhile tRump and family are busy draining our treasury for trips, business deals, cover-ups. You name it. Con artists the entire group.

(14,164 posts)They are more like the two trotted out each time to feign shock and make demands for someone..someone else....to do something about it. So that if the shit ever does hit the fan (through no effort on their part mind you) they can prance and preen about how they called it months ago because they are such admirable politicians.

(9,426 posts)He is one of their own. Both McCain and Graham have feathered their nests for years, at the expense of their pride and ethics. They are NOT patriots as they claim. They sit and watch this circus of tRump play out, pretending to be outraged. Surely they are both rich enough after all their years screwing taxpayers, that it is time to DO THE RIGHT THING for this country.
