DONALD J. TRUMP RESPONSE TO LINDSEY GRAHAM

"I fully understand why Lindsey Graham cannot support me. If I got beaten as badly as I beat him, and all the other candidates he endorsed, I would not be able to give my support either. Every time I see Lindsey Graham spew hate during interviews I ask why the media never questions how I single-handedly destroyed his hapless run for President. As a candidate who did not receive 1% in his own state - compared to my victory at nearly 40% with many others in the race - he has zero credibility. He was a poor representative and an embarrassment to the great people of South Carolina. Judging by the incompetent way he ran his campaign, it is easy to see why his military strategies have failed so badly --- we can’t even beat ISIS!

While I will unify the party, Lindsey Graham has shown himself to be beyond rehabilitation. And like the voters who rejected him, so will I!"

Donald J. Trump

oh my Lord!
that all rings pretty much true
but it is SO BLUNT

(not that Lindsay Graham doesn’t deserve or need Blunt)

I would have to say.. that NORMALLY its not wise to issue such blunt, hard-hitting critiques of people

BUT in a very few cases, its both justified and may even help a bit, maybe possibly. Rehabilitating Graham would seem quite the impossibility, I admit, but if anything can do it.. maybe this sort of clear statement from the new GOP party leader....... might just do the trick.

Good going, DT! you can add McCain and McConnell to your list

From the Urban Disctionary:

Bitch slap - To open handedley slap someone. Denote disrespect for the person being bitch slapped as they are not worthy of a man sized punch. Suggests the slap was met with little resistance and much whining

Keith owed me that $20 for weeks and I had to bitch slap the M.F. to get it back.

At face value it is a beat down of Linda which is much deserved. On another level it is a play for Cruz’s supporters who hate the establishment. Trump reaffirming his disgust for the establishment is a net positive for the 25% of Cruz backers. Lindsay and the RINOs are irrelevant. Trump playing to the broad middle and Bernoe supporters here too.

"Lindsey is a warmonger just like his pal McCain."

That is why McCain is dancing around Trump, he is running this year and IMHO he gets beaten in the Primaries. If Trump puts the spotlight on him it happens sooner. Which begs the question, is Linsey acting as McCain's altered ego and speaking for John...

Hot damn. LOL. While some politicians might have chosen to ignore it or try to keep some face-saving ground open, Trump has no reason to and it is probably to his advantage to put an end to this kind of dissension by crushing those who continue to openly divide the party or hinder party unification. And he did it in Trump style, which makes it fun for us to watch :-)

Had a happy moment when asked to sign McCain’s petition to get on the ballot last week and telling them, “Nope.”

Yes, Trump “should” be nicer to Senator Ashley Wilkes

But damn - when McCain and Graham travel over there to the sandbox playing Indiana Jones with ISIS and mouth off about us Trump voters (and it is about us) - what man or woman among us wouldn’t enjoy smacking those fleshy jowls?

Can’t you just hear the humphs and sputters over in Ashley’s Senate chamber? They gonna’ need to put some ice on that

LOL, oh, man, my fellow freepers... you gotta love this guy! Even if you were for Cruz. C’mon, admit it.

He’s going to make a GREAT president and someday you’re going to be embarrassed you didn’t vote for him first time around.

I’ve been for Trump all along, but I look forward to voting for Cruz someday. He will also make a great president, imo. But for now, VOTE TRUMP!!!

If they have glass houses then don’t throw stones at the big dog. Trump is Trump and it’s just the way people like him.

No matter what he (Trump) does, he wins some, he loses some. I like that he’s throwing light on the schism in the GOP. Smoke ‘em out.

Oh hogwash, that’s exactly what we need in an executive... someone who will kick their ass and do it publicly, boldly and offensively.
The politically correct way of doing things is the wrong damn way to do them.
Trump victories prove Beyond any shadow of a doubt that his way is the right way for our nation at this time.

Trump really shouldn’t respond to Grahamnesty’s stink bombs since he is just attention ho’ing.

Great response. This is way the American people feel about the elites.

"Is there anyone on stage - and can I see hands - who is unwilling tonight to pledge your support to the eventual nominee of the Republican Party and pledge to not run an independent campaign against that person. Again, we're looking for you to raise your hand now - raise your hand now if you won't make that pledge tonight."
