Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., a leading neoconservative, is making the rounds on media touting his support for the $61 billion Ukraine aid bill. His rationale: It’s a loan.
Crediting former President Donald Trump for the idea, Graham told “Fox News Sunday” host Shannon Bream that he supports the foreign aid package currently before Congress because it’s structured differently from a previous deal he opposed in February.
“This aid package has a loan component to it,” Graham said Sunday. “President Trump has created a loan component to this package that gives us leverage down the road.”
But does it?
