Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) rebuked the series of indictments against former President Donald Trump, calling trials in liberal jurisdictions “unfair” and issuing an ominous warning that these actions are “setting a bad precedent.”

“I know that Fulton County is the most liberal County, I think, in all of Georgia. The D.A. there is a Democrat,” Mr. Graham said in an interview with Fox News on Monday. “I know that they’re trying to use a RICO statute. I don’t know exactly what they’re going to come out with. But I know this—between Manhattan and Fulton County and D.C., the most liberal jurisdictions in the country, it’s very unfair to President Trump.”
