Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) on Sunday joined Democrats in calling for President Donald Trump to turn over any recordings he made of conversations with fired FBI Director James Comey.
“If there are any tapes, they have to be turned over. You can’t be cute about tapes,” Graham said on NBC News’ “Meet the Press.” “I doubt if there are, but we need to clear the air.”
He said he wants Comey to come before the Senate Judiciary Committee to discuss conversations he had with Trump before his abrupt termination.
Graham said he does not believe Trump “is a target” of a probe into possible connections between his associates and Russian officials, and said Trump should “let the investigation go forward” — and lay off the tweeting.
“I would advise the President not to tweet about the investigation going forward,” Graham said. “He needs to back off here.”
