Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said the recent indictment of Donald Trump over his alleged mishandling of classified documents is a boon for the former president.

“I know you don’t get what I’m saying, but people on my side believe it, and I think Donald Trump is stronger today politically than he was before,” Graham told ABC’s “This Week” on June 11.

According to a court document unsealed on June 8, Trump was charged with 37 felony counts over his handling of documents at his Mar-a-Lago resort, including violating the federal Espionage Act and other federal statutes for allegedly making false statements, concealing documents, and conspiring to obstruct justice.

FBI agents raided Mar-a-Lago in August 2022, seizing over 11,000 documents and photographs without classified markings and around 100 documents marked classified or top secret. However, Trump has said he declassified the materials when he left office.

Graham said the espionage charges are “completely wrong.”
