Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said that removing House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) from his position would be a “disaster” for the Republican Party.

“I think Kevin is the right guy at the right time. The only way he loses his job is if a handful of Republicans join up with the Democratic Party to fire him,” Mr. Graham said during an interview with NBC’s “Face The Nation” on Sunday. “That would be a disaster for the future [of] the Republican Party. That’s not gonna happen.”
