Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump is brushing off news that Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) is apparently backing his main rival for the nomination, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas).
Trump suggested Friday that Cruz was on the receiving end of a "jinx" after Graham, who endorsed Jeb Bush after ending his own campaign, signaled support for Cruz.
"Lyin' Ted Cruz lost all five races on Tuesday-and he was just given the jinx - a Lindsey Graham endorsement. Also backed Jeb. Lindsey got 0!" Trump tweeted. The businessman's remarks come a day after news emerged that Graham, a vocal opponent of Trump, would be hosting a fundraiser next week for Cruz.
Graham has long been critical of Cruz, and as recently as last month joked about the Texan being murdered on the Senate floor.

Yet no one in the press talked of his violent rhetoric.

Better than having the David Duke jinx, hypocrite.
Lindsey gave Ted his jinx. Hopefully, he did not give him anything else.
Hits home.
And Linda wanted nothing to do with Cruz before he wanted anything to do with him.
And when did Linda earn a single vote?
Cruz has the establishment’s support as much as Trump does. Either that or we no longer think the goofball governors of Florida, Maine and New Jersey are establishment.
I never tire of hearing people make fun of Lindsay Graham!
Facts? Who needs facts?
I bet Trump would word things differently if Graham were backing him instead. But yes . . . Graham is a jinx no matter who he “endorses.” I do not think his endorsement of Cruz is whole-hearted, much like my vote for McCain, Romney etc. Ha!
TrumpTweets read like he let another intern lose with his account...
You know when you have an establishment dirtbag like Graham endorsing you, you know, the same guy who joked in the Senate you were better off shot dead, that betrays your lack of character.
Oh Ted, why on your earth would you befriend such a man? I have my pride but you’re so desperate to win you sold your soul to the devil.
Here he comes to collect his due.
I’m supporting Trump, but I think it’s foolish to insult him too much and to alienate his supporters.
If Cruz shows up at a fundraiser with Graham, it just shows that Cruz is a pseudo conservative and a real member of the establishment.

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
I’m a Cruz supporter, and I chuckled when I read that.
I’m a Cruz guy and I think that’s funny. :)
You are just repeating media lies about Trump.
The media lied and said David Duke endorsed Trump. He did not.
The media asked Trump to disavow this so called “endorsement”. Trump did.
Jake Tapper in a phone interview asked Trump to disavow other groups. Trump said he did not know who these groups were.
Media made up the lie that Trump supported David Duke.
Do you know that Trump's family have been threatened with harm if he does not drop out of the race?
Do you know that the left wing group anonymous has declared an all out war on Trump and has released his cell phone number and SSN?
Did you know that Washington insiders are preparing a blacklist of all Trump supporters to destroy their careers?
Did you know that Soros funded thugs have declared they will disrupt Trumps events and attack his supporters?
And he still has many more followers than Ted Lose.
