Trump pardoned about 1,500 people who were charged for their actions during the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. That number includes 172 who pleaded guilty to assaulting law enforcement officers. Graham, however, points out that Trump said he would grant the pardons if he was reelected.

Senator Lindsey Graham, a well-known MAGA Republican, recently criticized President Donald Trump's decision to issue sweeping pardons for Capitol rioters.

The South Carolina Republican told CNN that he “did not like” how Trump pardoned people who “beat up cops,” and suggested he would be open to curtailing the presidential pardon power.
