U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) made the following statement on news reports that former President Donald Trump has been indicted by a Manhattan grand jury.
“This is a shocking and dangerous day for the Rule of Law in America.
“This is one of the most irresponsible decisions in American history by any prosecutor.
“It is irresponsible because the case was looked at by two previous prosecutors and they passed. It has not aged like fine wine.
“The chief witness for prosecution is a convicted felon, Michael Cohen, whose previous lawyer said he is untrustworthy. Upon scrutiny, this case folds like a cheap suit.
“So how does this end? Trump wins in court and he wins at the ballot box.”
