In a recent interview on NBC's 'Meet the Press,' Republican Senator Lindsey Graham criticized President Joe Biden, accusing him of causing chaos worldwide.
Graham's remarks came in response to host Kristen Welker's question about former president Donald Trump's meeting with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban at Mar-a-Lago.
Graham stated, "Biden has caused chaos worldwide. His policies have led to broken borders and turmoil across the globe."
He vehemently rejected Welker's comparison to Trump's actions.
He also challenged Biden to debate Trump in person rather than relying on a teleprompter, asserting, "If there is ever an election in the history of America that deserved a debate between the two candidates, it's this one."
Following his strong showing in the Super Tuesday primaries, Trump has called for a debate "anytime, anywhere" with Biden.
However, Biden has hinted that he may not engage in a debate with Trump, citing concerns about his behavior.
During the interview, Graham also dismissed claims that Trump controls the Senate, stating, "Let's just not even exist as a Senate if we have to ask permission from Donald Trump for everything we do."
He refuted the idea that Trump influences Senate decisions, citing his own votes against Trump's preferences.
Graham also criticized the failure of a bipartisan border deal endorsed by Biden, suggesting that Trump's alleged pressure on Republican Senators may have influenced the outcome.
Despite his support for Trump, Graham has disagreed with him on various issues, including Ukraine aid.
Graham expressed his agreement with Trump's policy of providing aid in the form of a loan, calling it an "America First" approach.
However, Graham expressed his desire to visit Ukraine and assure them that aid is on the way.
He also criticized Biden's remarks on the Israel-Hamas war, questioning whether Biden's statement implied support for Hamas staying in power if they release hostages.
Graham's comments drew criticism online, with many social media users accusing him of dishonesty and expressing disappointment in his statements.
