Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) was noncommittal on acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker Sunday, saying that he’s “not sure” Whitaker is the “best choice” to stay in the role, and acknowledging that he’s said things that would likely prove “problematic” to his confirmation.
“It’s too early to tell,” Graham told NBC News’ Chuck Todd on whether Whitaker should stay in the position. “He’s said some things that would probably be problematic to be confirmed but having said that, I was very impressed with his attitude, his professionalism and he’s got a very solid resume.”
“I have nothing against him,” he added. “I don’t know if he is the best choice.”
