WASHINGTON -- President Donald Trump, congressional colleagues and world leaders Tuesday said their final goodbyes to Sen. Lindsey Graham, the influential and colorful foreign policy hawk whose sudden death this month at age 71 stunned Washington and reverberated in capitals around the globe. Eulogizing Graham at his funeral service at the Washington National Cathedral, Trump called him 'a respected statesman, a giant of the United States Senate, and a true American original who left us much too soon.' ... 'He was a man who gave America the full measure of his good and mighty heart until that heart itself just gave out,' Trump said.
