South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham has been criticized for claiming that President Donald Trump made a “mistake” his first week in office. During an interview on NBC’s Meet The Press, Graham told host Kristen Welker that Trump’s pardon of the Jan. 6 defendants was a “mistake.”

The South Carolina Republican told CNN that he “did not like” how Trump pardoned people who “beat up cops,” and suggested he would be open to curtailing the presidential pardon power.
