CNN’s Manu Raju: Trump Waiving Sanctions Against Russia to Ease Gasoline and Diesel Prices Is Getting Backlash from Darline Graham

EXCERPT:

RAJU: “Democrats, a lot of them, voted against it because they were concerned Trump would do what he just did on Friday, which was to waive sanctions against Russia and it's — because of, of course, the war in Ukraine. Trump doing this as a way to ease gasoline, diesel prices, in particular, and getting some backlash from someone you probably would not expect here. Darline Graham, who has aligned herself very much with President Trump throughout this because she is — the reason why she is the Republican nominee is because of Donald Trump‘s support in that South Carolina race, she said, 'I would choose to keep the pressure on Russia to end the war and get the gas prices down because I don‘t trust Putin and I don‘t trust Russia.' Of course, this is her brother's legislation, the late Lindsey Graham, that he helped push across the finish line."
