Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., argued on ABC's "This Week" that Donald Trump is "stronger" after last week's indictment and added that the charges don't impact his support for the former president.

"I think Donald Trump is stronger today politically than he was before. ... We'll have an election, and we'll have a trial, but I promise you this: Most Americans believe, most Republicans believe, that the law is used as a weapon against Donald Trump," Graham said in a testy interview with "This Week" anchor George Stephanopoulos.

Graham said he did not approve of the former president's handling of classified information but insisted Trump did not deserve to be charged under the Espionage Act

Former President Donald Trump continued to attack the federal indictment handed down against him this week, telling North Carolina Republicans Saturday night that the charges were "third world country stuff."

"You get indicted over nothing?" he exclaimed.

Trump also mused about whether his alma mater, the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, was proud of him for getting indicted.

"I wonder if they say, 'Oh, that's wonderful,'" he said.

Former President Donald Trump has vowed to stay in the 2024 presidential race even if he is convicted on the wide-ranging 37-count indictment.

In an interview with a Politico reporter who went on Trump's plane on Saturday, Trump said he will continue to run for president even if he's convicted in his federal case, his spokesperson confirmed.

"I'll never leave," Trump said. "Look, if I would have left, I would have left prior to the original race in 2016. That was a rough one. In theory, that was not doable."

A Trump campaign spokesperson confirmed to ABC News that Trump made the comment.

Former President Donald Trump made his first public remarks since being handed a wide-ranging 37-count indictment from the special counsel's office on Thursday.

"The ridiculous and baseless indictment of me by the Biden administration's weaponized department of injustice will go down as among the most horrific abuses of power in the history of our country," he told supporters Saturday in in Columbus, Georgia.

Hours after addressing Georgia’s Republican convention, Trump again blasted the "thugs and freaks running this country."

"We did absolutely nothing wrong. ... It's a disgrace what's happening. And you know what this country is paying a big price. Should never be allowed to happen," he said at a local Waffle House.

In the wake of the indictment, two of former President Donald Trump's lawyers have submitted their resignations.

Jim Trusty and John Rowley said they were stepping down in a joint statement.

"This morning we tendered our resignations as counsel to President Trump, and we will no longer represent him on either the indicted case or the January 6 investigation," they wrote.

Trump, meanwhile, claimed Friday that he had removed two of his attorneys representing him in the documents probe and "will be announcing additional lawyers in the coming days."

"I want to thank Jim Trusty and John Rowley for their work," Trump said on Truth Social, "but they were up against a very dishonest, corrupt, evil, and 'sick' group of people, the likes of which has not been seen before."

Trump said he will be represented in the case by Todd Blanche, who attended Manhattan criminal court with the former president in April, and "a firm to be named later."
