Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said he still has differences with President-elect Donald Trump, but is prepared to work with him and be a check on him when necessary.
"There will be areas where I don't agree, and my job then will be to represent a coequal branch of government and speak my mind," Graham told reporters in the Senate Tuesday.
In the wide-ranging session Tuesday afternoon, Graham a vocal opponent of Trump's tone and positions on immigration and foreign policy said that he believes Trump is not an ideologue and instead will still be evolving on public policy as his presidency begins, especially since Trump has a business background and lives in a world where "the other side has to get something."
"He has a unique opportunity here. There are deals to be made. Big, HUGE deals," Graham said, poking at Trump's hyperbolic rhetoric. "But there will be no huge deals in this body that doesn't have Democrat and Republican support."

Trump will fore check this little Sissy into the boards, and Into a Whaaamulance.
He wants to lead the loyal opposition, I guess.
Does anybody have this clowns number at the Capitol in DC?
Yeah, it’s Fort Sumter, genius, and many people in SC voted to remove him. I actually believe he gets lots of Democrat cross-over votes during the primaries so he survives. I know no one in SC that likes him or is proud that he represents us.
Thanks again, South Carolina.
Open Borders and Endless War....THIS is the GOP we have to DESTROY.
Go make me a sandwich, Linda...
“Yeah, its Fort Sumter, genius,”
Whatever. It’s little more than a prop for SC to pretend like they still have a spine, while they keep electing GOPers every election because they apparently are too stupid to vote for ONE person in their primaries.
When you guys manage to pull that off, then get back to me on spelling because at least a typo isnt working for the Democrats.
I just dont get SC GOP voters at all...
Me either, and that goes for Arizona GOP voters, as well!
I guess McCain gave him permission to talk.
Linda is a PERFECT example of WHY WE NEED term limits!!! NOW is the perfect time to start PUSHING for convention of the states, WE OWN 35 states it is TIME for states to declare their independence and give us TERM LIMITS on these ASSHATS!!
Do you remember, back a few decades, when Republicans DIDN’T work against Republican Presidents?
McCain and Mimi-Me
Just turn it off. If I’m listening to Rush or Hannity, I simply turn off the radio at the top of the hour and at the half for 5 minutes or so.
It does wonders for my blood pressure.
