Sen. Lindsey Graham, a close ally of former President Donald Trump, said Sunday the 2024 GOP presidential candidate is getting a political boost in support after being indicted for allegedly mishandling classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago resort.
“I think Donald Trump is stronger today politically than he was before,” the South Carolina Republican said on ABC’s “This Week.” “I think the espionage charges are ridiculous. I think what happened to Hillary Clinton, [what] she got away with, is very similar to what happened to President Trump. And we’ll have an election, and we’ll have a trial.”
Mr. Trump was charged by a federal grand jury in South Florida with 37 felony counts related to his handling of classified materials after leaving office, in which special counsel Jack Smith alleges the ex-president sought to obstruct justice and rebuff the government’s attempts to recover the documents.
