Sen. Graham takes a call with Trump: He's a 'funny' guy
politico ^

Posted on 05/12/2016 12:50:31 PM PDT by jennychase

Trump had courted the hawkish Graham, a leading voice in the GOP on defense issues, for his input on national security policy, the senator said. But Trump turned on the charm for Graham, who called the conversation “very cordial [and] funny.” “He’s got a great sense of humor. He’s from New York, he obviously can take a punch,” Graham told reporters. “I wished him well and that’s where we are.”

...play nice or he would give out Graham’s cell phone number again.

When Trump gave out Graham's phone number that was the point I knew this was going to be a VERY different kind of election...

Oh Miss Lindsey. I knew you’d fall in line once the handwriting was on the wall.

I think they are all on board to save face! When the swearing in takes place, they will be back to their “usual, normal” selves.

I’ll never trust Graham.

Right now on the Lars Larsen show he is talking about some school in the Portland area putting up a pinata with Trump picture on it and having the kids take baseball bats to it. He’s trying to get the school to speak about it. A parent ratted on them.

Welcome to 3rd world Oregon!

He will have more information on his website after he’s off the air.

Makes me worry as well. Hope he’s not starting to deal away everything we loved about him.

Trump must’ve lied to get Linda's attention, he likely had to promise Graham the gift of a young boy

I still don’t trust any of these backstabbers.

And we shouldn't. I'm certain Trump doesn't trust them either. See: The Art of War (Sun Tsu) and The Art of the Deal (Donald Trump).

Among the things that will make us stand up and cheer during a Trump presidency, there will be many things to exhasperate us, as well. I'm pretty sure getting snookered won't be one of them.

“Did that cockroach ever get to 1% of the popular vote?”

No, but at least for the time being Linda can use the bathroom of her choice in her home state.

Clinton +2 in a poll that is D+7. Don’t think turnout will be that more like D+2

“He’s got a great sense of humor. He’s from New York, he obviously can take a punch,” Graham told reporters. “I wished him well and that’s where we are.”

Graham then giggled like a schoolgirl and started drawing hearts in his diary.

If Graham has a black eye tomorrow we'll know John McCain is a jealous man.

Charm offesive is underway—if he can get Graham on board—he can get anyone (who is sane) to jump onto the Trump Train—once more showing his skills. My admiration for Trump is growing—I was at 20% Failed President 40% OK—passible President and 40% a great president. NOW its more like 10% Failed President (think Jimmy Carter/ Obama) and 30% OK president (Think Bush I, Ford) and 60% great president (Think Reagan).

Like I amuse you? Y’beat me to the image, and the post.

If I were Trump, I’d be thinking along these lines, after all Linda has said over the past year.

I loved it when someone (can’t remember who) gave out Trump’s number and he changed the message to a political ad ;)

Cuddling up is OK, when you consider the alternative is starting a third party candidacy.

Pretty soon the Trump Train will be zooming along to Cleveland. And only the Bushies (Jeb, Romney, Ryan, and Cruz) will be left without a ride.

All Aboard, People!
