Lindsey Graham

The Congress has decided to self-neuter.

Warriors are the best I believe at making peace. And the warrior understands the difference between a false peace and real peace. To those who accused him of wanting endless wars, you had no idea what you were talking about. He wanted…

And if that can be repaired in this relationship, fine. But again, I just don't see that happening.

If you want to help the country, be more like John McCain. I believe there is a little John McCain in all of us. And the little John McCain practice by a lot of people, can make this a really great nation.

Well did Trump ask that question? He must have mentioned that about 20 times. So I told the President, I know you don't like it. I know you feel put upon. You just got to ride it out.

We're going to spend now or we're going to spend later, and I think there's an opportunity to get ahead of the problem.

I would not be okay with withdrawing our troops from South Korea, because I think they're a stabilizing force for the region.

If North Korea is watching the hearing, and I hope you are, take the deal. It would be good for you. It would be good for everybody.

Very briefly, do you see any backsliding on China's part when it comes to sanctions against North Korea?

It's imperative that we keep in mind China's very strategic approach and long-term goal of becoming the world's superpower.

I believe it's critically important that we, as a nation founded on freedom and the rule of law, avoid complacency.

Well, this is a defining moment, I think, for our presence in the Mideast.

We may have our differences, but I really am pleased with the leadership you've shown early on, and we want to help you be successful.

Well, I trust them about as much to do that as I do to police chemical weapons.

If we withdrew from the north without sound thinking, do you worry about the Turkey-Kurdish conflict arising anew?

So I am encouraged to find that there's bipartisan support for what a good deal should look like.

But I just don't see how the State Department can operate if the security environment doesn't exist, and if we withdraw too soon, it will fall apart, and that's just the way the world is.

I would be concerned about ISIS and Al Qaeda's ability to merge and project external operations because I know they want to, and I know they're consistently looking for that opportunity.

I asked him point blank what would happen if we withdrew in the next 6 months in Afghanistan. He said he thinks it would lead to a lot of disorder and chaos.

We like ourselves if nobody else does.

They take risks on behalf of this Nation every day, and they're very much heroes.

If you don't want to be in endless wars, if you want to have more tools than just dropping bombs, it's essential we have a robust foreign assistance account.

I would ask the subcommittee members to submit any questions for the record no later than this Friday, June 29.

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham today said that he always felt Miller's view on immigration has been, 'Outside the mainstream.'

It has to come to an end.
