Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Tuesday said he believes the relationship between President Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions is "beyond repair" adding that he thinks that the U.S. needs an attorney general that can "work with the president."

"We need an attorney general that can work with the president, that can lead the Department of Justice," Graham said on NBC's "Today" show. "This relationship is beyond repair, I think."

Graham added he believes that any replacement for Sessions would have to "commit to the Senate and the country as a whole that [special counsel Robert] Mueller will be allowed to finish his job without political interference."

"The president’s lost confidence in Sessions," Graham said. "Is there somebody who’s highly qualified that has the confidence of the president, who will also understand that their job is to protect Mueller? Yes, I think we can find that person after the election, if that’s what the president wants."

1. I wonder who Lindsey wants installed?? Trey??

[Lindsay]

6. I wondered the samee thing.

Trey is a good guess. But Lindsey is a former USAF prosecutor and JAG, so he's got some experience his own self. And he certainly has become a faithful Trump lapdog. So he was my first guess.

2. It is beyond repair because Sessions followed the law.

Graham is compromised. Where have all the cowboys gone?

[atreides1]

3. Graham was never a cowboy

Graham is more like a beaten animal, now!!!

[Evergreen Emerald]

4. Exactly.

[riversedge]

8. Lindsey in now one of Trumps best golfer pals. They have bonded and Graham has really

jumped the shark into the stinking swamp

[Beatlelvr]

13. I seriously don't understand

Why in the world doesn't Sessions resign? At least he could go out with a shred of pride (not that I like the guy), instead of the sting if being fired. I would have been gone long ago, once Assface started bad mouthing me like he always does.

15. He gave up his senate seat to work for the twit

I am guessing he has little else to do

[tonyt53]

5. That was Personality #1 speaking for Graham. He has two more personalities.

This one is a hardline trumpie to the core. #2 and #3 come smiling.

[rpannier]

7. "Is there somebody who's highly qualified that has the confidence of the president

No
Because no one that is highly qualified will work for the twit
In case Graham has any doubts, all he has to do is look at il dumbass' legal team. No A-lister will represent him
Ted Olson had nothing nice to say about trumpass

9. I bet Chris Christie would take it

Or Rudy G.?

Not that they are "highly qualified".

[rpannier]

12. Ghouliani has done such a fine job as his spokesghoul

[Mc Mike]

10. Highly qualified? D Rump doesn't have a real good track record picking attorneys.

He's picked crooked, incompetent criminals since the '70's, Lindsay. But thanks for playing.

You traitor.

[Rorey]

11. We need a President who can work with others

That's what Graham SHOULD be saying. What a wimp.

[Snotcicles]

14. Maybe the president will ask Graham to do a Dick Cheney style VP search for the best candidate .

That will end up with the same type of result.

[Corgigal]

16. Your bestie isn't even buried yet,

and you're backing the Russian asset. Aren't you a piece of work, senator.

[Demonaut]

17. I wonder what information the trump cabal has against Lindsay Graham

he's so very compliant now

[ProfessorGAC]

18. Why Is A Sitting Senator Acting As Spokesman For the Executive?

Don't they pay enough people to do that already?

And, do they pay senators to act as a White House spokesperson?

Answers to these questions:
He's a sycopant
Yes
No

[truthisfreedom]

19. "The president needs a search engine he can work with."

“The relationship between the president and google is beyond repair, I think.”

[BeyondGeography]

20. Whatever happened to The Straight Talk Express?

[sdfernando]

21. What do the Russians have on Lindsey?

It is obvious he has been "talked to". His swift about face and total support of the orange pustule is curious to say the least. We all know, although it is not widely reported, that putin got the RNC emails and possible much more.

[LiberalLovinLug]

22. "....if that's what the president wants"

There's the rub.

Graham, the weasel, left himself an out.

Its what the President wants. Who is he to go against that? Any Trump humper can be sworn in as he lies about shutting down Mueller. And then watch Graham act all incredulous as the new AG orders the investigation stopped. (But then shrugs and walks away)
