Lindsey Graham excoriated Republican presidential rival Donald Trump on Tuesday morning for his immigration plan, calling it both “stupid” and “illegal.”
In an interview with “Fox & Friends,” Graham addressed Trump’s immigration proposal, which would call for the mass deportation of undocumented immigrants, revoke birthright citizenship from the children of immigrants who came to the United States illegally and call for the construction of a wall along the United States’ 1,900-mile long border with Mexico.
“Well, Donald Trump’s plan on immigration is stupid,” the South Carolina senator said. “It’s illegal.”
If you try to deport American-born children of immigrants who came to the country illegally, “you’ll get creamed in court,” he added.
Most Hispanics, Graham remarked, find Trump offensive.
“I find him offensive,” he said. “His solution is just constitutionally flawed. It’s not practical.”
Graham also took aim at Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus who in an interview over the weekend said that Trump is a “net positive” for the party.
“I think that’s dumb, too,” he said.

Maybe Lindsey should go on vacation with Megyn.
Linda had no business running, so the GOPe thugs must have put him up to it.
Pee Wee sealed the deal : )
Levin: Cruz, Trump, Sessions ‘Are Right,’ 14th Amendment Doesn’t Mandate Birthright Citizenship
Well its not stupid and it up to the COURTS to decide if it is legal or not. You should know this Mr. Graham...
I find him offensive,” he said
Well sir I find it offense that you call yourself a Republican.......
If you try to deport American-born children of immigrants who came to the country illegally, “you’ll get creamed in court,” he added.
Not if the Judge is not an idiot and follows the actual Constitution.
I don’t even want to hear about the border issues, illegal immigration from those who have been in D.C. for years. If they were less talk more action the issues would have been solved. So many politicians seem to have the solution now- why didn’t they get together and fix this mess? As far as I am concerned they have had their chance, already proved they don’t intend to deal with it.
WHO?
“The illegal immigration problem is quite complex, we’ll have to get back to you on that”
Signed, GOPe
Clutching his pearls again. I bet they used to be his grandma’s. Somebody at the RNC needs to push a fainting couch behind him ASAP.
You know they did.
So Lindsey...What you are saying is that a foreign ambassador and his wife have a child in America, that child is automatically an American citizen....
Imagine how “petty” this would have seemed in a tweet. lol
It’s illegal to throw out illegals?
I think we are witnessing a complete realignment of the two political parties. When all the dust clears nether party will be the same ever again.
I will hand it to Trump for that.
Maybe we will end up with at least one party that actually cares about AMERICANS when all the dust clears.
The left has hated America for decades and has done everything in its power to destroy us. The leadership of the right has pretended to love America and that it was conservative when they were actually in cahoots with the left the whole time.
Graham on Trump: ‘I’ll beat his brains out’ in S.C.

Exactly.
Pretty amazing that Graham would even THINK anyone would vote for him?
Who says it is illegal?
