Senate Judiciary Committee chair Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said that Donald Trump Jr., should comply with a Senate Intelligence Committee subpoena but refuse to answer the panel’s questions, the Washington Post reports.
Said Graham: “You just show up and plead the 5th and it’s over with.”
He added that Trump Jr.’s lawyer would “have to be an idiot” to allow him to testify before the committee again.
