Lindsey Graham Grilled Over Trump's Call For 'Televised Military Tribunals'

CBS host Robert Costa grilled Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) after former President Donald Trump amplified calls for military tribunals for former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) and others.

While appearing on Face the Nation Sunday, Graham was asked about how the Supreme Court's ruling on presidential immunity would impact a potential second term for Trump.

"This is someone who pushed to overturn the election in late 2020, early 2021," Costa said of Trump. "He pushed officials who are working in an official capacity like then-Vice President Mike Pence to the brink in terms of how to use their official powers."

"How will Trump use power in a second term in the wake of this Supreme Court ruling?" the CBS News host asked.

"I think he's going to be a damn good president to right the ship," Graham replied. "The question is, will it be on a revenge tour? He's going to be on a success tour."

"The best indication of what Trump will do in the future, policy-wise, is what he did in the past," he continued. "I love a policy debate... The policy of socialism versus the policy of freedom."

Costa pushed back.
