Known for his sharp foreign policy stance, shifting political alliances—from Clinton critic to Trump ally—and his knack for bipartisan deals, Graham’s legacy blends fierce partisanship with rare political finesse.

Tributes poured in from across the aisle, honoring his relationships, energy, and enduring impact on U.S. foreign policy.
