Chris Cuomo blasted Lindsey Graham as someone who is out to save his own ass after he called for Gov. Kemp to help Trump overturn the election.

CNN host Chris Cuomo unleashed on Lindsey Graham on Tuesday night after the South Carolina senator called on Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp to help Trump overturn the election results in his state.

Graham appeared on Fox News earlier on Tuesday and called for Gov. Kemp to take steps to end the ‘civil war’ in his state and save the country by asking “the legislature to come back in and order an audit of the signatures in the presidential race to see if the system worked.”

Cuomo was having none of it.  

“I will keep arguing that the danger we face does not exit with Trump. The ReTrumplicans who fear his return and covet his base are all in,” Cuomo said before running a part of Graham’s interview on Fox.

“No, you don’t mean save the country. You mean save your ass.” Cuomo said. “Georgia certified that vote three times over. Civil war? Seriously, senator? Do your words still come from your brain or just some reservoir of bile?”

“And by the way, Graham’s got plenty of company among the ReTrumplicans,” Cuomo added.

He then referenced the tweet from the Arizona Republican Party that urge supporters to fight to death if they must to stop the certification of election results.
