Sen. Lindsey Graham said Republicans were 'shot in the back' over McConnell's debt-limit deal and warned his colleagues of Trump's fury



The Senate moved ahead with legislation that would create a one-time, fast-track process for raising the debt limit, overcoming a Republican filibuster and likely averting another last-minute rush to avoid a devastating federal default. The bill is in line with the two goals that McConnell set for the vote to increase the debt ceiling: Democrats will have to pass the debt ceiling increase on their own, without GOP support, and they will have to increase it by a specific amount. McConnell was able to get enough Republican votes to advance the bill.

During a private lunch on Wednesday, Sen. Lindsey Graham warned his Republican colleagues that former President Donald Trump would come down hard on them if they voted for the McConnell deal.
