Sen. Lindsey Graham(R-S.C.) on Tuesday said any agreement between the U.S. and North Korea that comes from President Trump's meeting with Kim Jong Un should come to Congress for approval.
Not only do I want to see the details, I want to vote on them," Graham said on NBC's "Today."
"So heres what I would tell President Trump: I stand with you

He also signaled some doubt about the details of the denuclearization agreement Trump achieved with Kim.

(10,137 posts)who have been mildly critical of Trump (I'm looking at you, Jeff "Talk is Cheap" Flake, among others) to dust off their copies of the Constitution and re-read the parts that deal with the powers of the Senate, especially when it comes to treaties. And then do their jobs.
But I'm not holding my breath as long as the husband of the Secretary of Transportation controls the Senate.
