Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., hit the headlines Thursday for his outburst at Democrats questioning Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh -- but he now says that his former colleague John McCain’s temper would have eclipsed his anger. Graham blasted Senate Democrats during a hearing about sexual assault allegations made against Kavanaugh, who has repeatedly denied them. A furious Graham lambasted Democrats for what he cast as their attempts to destroy Kavanaugh for political purposes. And Lindsey Graham, for a long time, was on a path, that he'd be that person — that he'd be a figure of courage. But Graham, perhaps anticipating that criticism, dismissed such claims, saying that McCain's anger would have been so great at the hearing, “he would have made me look like a choir boy,” according to The State.
