And THAT puts him squarly at odds with Florida Gov Republican DeSantis and others who aren’t happy with their President’s travel’s….
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) praised President Biden’s surprise visit to Ukraine on Monday, saying the trip to the war-torn country was “the right signal to send at the right time.”
“I am very pleased that President Biden took the time and effort to visit Ukraine, and meet with President Zelensky,” Graham said in a statement. “This was the right signal to send at the right time. A presidential visit to Ukraine, along with the statements made by Vice President Harris at the Munich Security Conference that Russia is committing crimes against humanity in Ukraine, are a powerful combination.”
Graham referenced Harris’s comments in Germany last week, when she revealed that the U.S. had formally determined that Russia had committed crimes against humanity in its invasion of Ukraine.
The praise from the South Carolina senator comes as other Republicans have heaped criticism on the overseas visit by Biden. The likes of Reps. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) blasted Biden for dodging domestic responsibilities back home in favor of the trip to Ukraine…..
