“The White House should expel Russian diplomats and agents from the United States in retaliation for the recent attacks in Britain. I hope the administration will take decisive action not only to let Great Britain know we’re in their corner, but to also let the Russians know this kind of behavior will not be tolerated by the international community. The choice to send a clear signal to Russia is a defining moment for the President and his team. Anything short of expelling Russian diplomats and agents will be seen by the Russians as a sign of weakness - and by our allies in Europe as an American retreat in the face of Russian aggression.” https://www.lgraham.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/2018/3/graham-u-s-must-firmly-push-back-on-russian-aggression
“An American president does not lead the Free World by congratulating dictators on winning sham elections. And by doing so with Vladimir Putin, President Trump insulted every Russian citizen who was denied the right to vote in a free and fair election to determine their country's future, including the countless Russian patriots who have risked so much to protest and resist Putin's regime."
