WATCH: Sean Hannity calls Sen. Lindsey Graham a ‘true original’ at Washington funeral service
Fox News host Sean Hannity gave a eulogy Tuesday for the late Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., at a funeral service at the Washington National Cathedral.
“We are here to say goodbye as the president said to a true original,” Hannity said. “There was nobody like Lindsey Graham. Nobody. He loved being a U.S. senator. He loved representing the great state of South Carolina. He worked harder, he traveled more than any senator I ever knew.”
Hundreds came to pay their respects to the longtime lawmaker who died earlier this month at age 71. President Donald Trump spoke about Graham’s life and legacy. Several foreign dignitaries also attended the service, including Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Earlier in the day, Graham was recognized in a ceremony in the Capitol Rotunda, which included tributes from Rep. Sheri Biggs, R-S.C., Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., and Vice President JD Vance.
