Jill Biden on Friday called Lindsey Graham's Trump-era transformation "a little bit hurtful," lamenting the South Carolina senator's shift from a onetime friend to one of President Donald Trump's top attack dogs accusing the former second family's son of wrongdoing in Ukraine.

The former second lady said the Bidens and Graham used to be "great friends," traveling together with the Senate Foreign Relations Committee when former Vice President Joe Biden was a long-serving senator from Delaware. But she said the South Carolina senator has changed.


“You know, it’s hard when you, I don’t know, consider somebody a friend and they’ve said so many things, so many negative things,” Biden said on CNN’s New Day. “And it’s — that’s been a little hurtful.”
