Graham: Report Trump asked counsel to fire Mueller 'should be looked at'

Source: The Hill



BY JULIA MANCHESTER - 01/28/18 09:22 AM EST




Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said on Sunday reports President Trump asked White House counsel Don McGahn to fire Special Counsel Robert Mueller should be looked at.

"I don't know if the story is true or not, but I know this, Mueller should look at it," Graham said on ABC's "This Week."

"Don McGahn, if the story is true in the New York Times, did the right thing, and the good news is the president listened," he said.

"The investigation needs to go forward without political interference, and I'm sure it will."

for more golfing with tRump. He swivels like a top once tRump golfs with him. Do any gop members have minds of their own? Do they remember WHY they were elected? Graham is looking very "worn" lately. All this flip flopping is straining him.

Why would the White House counsel have the authority to fire a special counsel?
