  • Descrição: The continuing debate over the border wall, he went on, was not just over funding for a barrier, in the same way that the brawl over Brett Kavanaugh, whose Supreme Court appointment had been delayed over allegations of sexual assault, was not merely about a judge. There are the Republican leaders, like Mitch McConnell, the Senate majority leader, and until recently Paul Ryan, the former speaker of the House, who might have little use for the president in private but can't risk alienating him. [...]he embodies elements of the other groups: a desire to carve out his own parallel universe of work on certain issues that have always been important to him, especially on foreign policy; an instinct to avoid the distraction of weighing in on every Trump offense ("Don't chase every barking dog," he says); and a personal library of readily surfaceable aggressions from the 2016 campaign, in which Graham called the future president a "kook," "crazy" and "unfit for office," among other things - and which are easily juxtaposed today with Graham's sycophantic raves about the president's stellar golf game and reminders that Trump "beat me like a dog" in the 2016 presidential primary (no doubt delighting Trump with his nod to the president's canine-themed pejoratives). In recent weeks, for instance, Graham - in his capacity as chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee - has demanded a briefing on such Fox News snack food as whether the F.B.I. acted with too heavy a hand in its arrest of the longtime Trump political adviser Roger Stone.
