Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said on Friday that he has never been more proud of President Donald Trump as he was when the president stood up to Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky during their meeting in the Oval Office earlier in the day.

Graham made the remarks standing outside the White House after Trump canceled the remaining events with Zelensky following the spat between the world leaders, which played out on live television.

Graham said that he told Zelensky earlier in the morning to not take the bait during the meeting and that he thought what happened was a “complete and utter disaster.”

“I have never been more proud of the president,” he said. “We want to be helpful. What I saw in the Oval Office was disrespectful, and I don’t know if we can ever do business with Zelensky again. I don’t think most Americans saw a guy that they would not want to go in business with the way he handled the meeting, the way he confronted the president was just over the top.”

“So I think the relationship between Ukraine and America is important, vitally important, but can Zelensky do a deal with the United States after what I saw?” he continued. “I don’t know.”

Graham said that he thought Zelensky either needed to “resign and send somebody over that we can do business with, or he needs to change.”
