What Was Graham’s Cause of Death?
Graham’s office only said the senator died from a “brief and sudden illness,” offering no further cause of death. His family asked for “privacy during this incredibly difficult time,” according to Graham’s office. EMS responded to a call of cardiac arrest at Graham’s home in Washington, D.C., on Saturday night, according to brief audio obtained by CNN and other outlets. Speaking to “Meet the Press” on Sunday morning, Trump speculated this must have happened shortly after his call with the senator. “It must have been right after that, because I understand the police or whoever it is came there at about 7:30-8:00 in the evening… so somebody notified them.” Trump seemed surprised about Graham’s death, noting “he was fine. I knew him well. He would let you know if he wasn’t feeling well.”
