Senator Lindsey Graham, speaking on the Senate floor on the evening of January 6, 2021:

โ€œTrump and I, weโ€™ve had a hell of a journey. I hate it to end this way. Oh my God, I hate it. From my point of view, heโ€™s been a consequential president, but today, first thing youโ€™ll see. All I can say is count me out. Enough is enough. Iโ€™ve tried to be helpful.โ€

Senator Lindsey Graham, speaking to Sean Hannity on the evening of May 18, 2021:

โ€œI miss Donald Trump. I hope heโ€™s considering running [for president]. Letโ€™s start a โ€˜draft Trumpโ€™ movement. Heโ€™s the one guy I think can go to the American people and say, โ€˜Let me finish what I started. What I did worked.โ€™โ€
