Sen. Graham: If Trump Fires AG Jeff Sessions, ‘There Will Be Holy Hell to Pay’

‘Any effort to go after Mueller could be the beginning of the end of the Trump presidency, unless Mueller did something wrong’

EXCERPT:

GRAHAM: “I think it’s not a message to the President as much as it is to Jeff and the country. You know, the President has the right to fire anybody in his cabinet. As a human being, I think he should show some respect for Jeff Sessions as a person. Jeff Sessions was the most loyal supporter of Donald Trump, he's a rock-solid conservative. But the reason I like him so much is I often disagree with him, but I’d never believe he was a man who lacks integrity or sense of fair play. This effort to, basically, marginalize and humiliate the Attorney General is not going over well in the Senate. I don’t think it’s going over well in the conservative world. If you believe Jeff Sessions should be fired, use the power you have and accept the consequences. I hope it stops. I’m 100 percent behind Jeff Sessions. The chairman of the Judiciary Committee sent a very chilling tweet yesterday. There will be no confirmation hearing for a new attorney general in 2017. If Jeff Sessions is fired, there will be holy hell to pay. Any effort to go after Mueller could be the beginning of the end of the Trump presidency, unless Mueller did something wrong."
