Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) says President Donald Trump should “celebrate” the fact that an investigation determined that a hate crime was not committed after a noose was found in NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace’s garage.
On Monday morning, Trump took to Twitter to ask if Wallace apologized after the investigation as he called the incident a “hoax,” as IJR reported.
However, during an interview on Fox News’ Brian Kilmeade’s radio show,” Graham said, “I don’t think Bubba Wallace has anything to apologize for.
Graham continued to note that “in the times in which we live, there’s a lot of anxiety.”
“You saw the best in NASCAR. When there was a chance that it was a threat against Bubba Wallace, they all rallied to Bubba’s side. I would be looking to celebrate that kind of attitude more than being worried about it being a hoax,” he added.
