Trump indicted: Lindsey Graham’s emotional battle call in wake of Trump indictment

Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina gave an emotional appeal for support of former President Donald Trump after his historic indictment. During an interview with Sean Hannity on Fox News, Graham reacted with frustration and anxiety at the news of the Manhattan grand jury’s decision to issue an indictment of a former president. Graham believed it was the most dangerous decision by a prosecutor in the country’s history and said it had opened Pandora’s box against the presidency itself. He called on people to support Trump by voting, donating money, and showing up at the ballot box to fight the charges.

Graham had been a vocal critic of Trump in the past but rallied behind him after the indictment, predicting he would win the 2024 election and the court case. Graham suggested that the number of charges against Trump was irrelevant compared to the political hatred behind the indictment. He urged people to give money to Trump to fight against the indictment, which he believed was politically driven and would destroy America.

Thursday’s indictment is unprecedented, as it is the first time a former U.S. president has been criminally charged. If he seeks a return to the White House in 2024, Trump faces what could be an unprecedented trial.
