After news reports surfaced that the Democratic National Committee’s server had been hacked and opposition research on Donald Trump had been stolen, reporters on Capitol Hill turned to Trump critic and foreign policy guru Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) to weigh in.

But, Graham – a longtime critic of Trump– almost didn’t believe what he was hearing. He paused. He smiled.

“Are you making that shit up?” Graham asked the reporter.

The reporter reassured him it was true.

“Really? ” Graham asked again.

“Let me absorb that one and I’ll get back to you.”
