Trump Says Graham's Final Words Concerned Stalled Elections Bill
Graham phoned near 7 p.m. Saturday, tired from a Ukraine trip; an aide told Trump of his death about six hours later.
- Graham told Trump 'we're all set for the SAVE America Act,' a bill short of Senate votes.
- Trump answered 'we're going to get it done, Lindsey,' expecting a Sunday meeting.
- Trump called the death 'a big blow to the SAVE America Act.'
Why it matters: Even a televised eulogy doubled as a pitch for the vote a dying ally could not deliver.
