President Donald Trump has taken a swipe at a fellow Republican, calling Sen. Lindsey Graham a "publicity seeking" lawmaker.
In a daybreak post on his Twitter account Thursday, Trump faulted the GOP senator for statements Graham has made about the president's stance on the violence and death of a woman in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Trump said in his tweet: "Publicity seeking Lindsey Graham falsely stated that I said there is moral equivalency between the KKK, neo-Nazis & white supremacists and people like Ms. Heyer." He was referring to Heather Heyer, the woman who was killed when she was struck by a car driven into the crowd.
"Such a disgusting lie," Trump said of Graham's remarks. "He just can't forget his election trouncing. The people of South Carolina will remember."
In a separate tweet, Trump accused "the Fake News" of distorting "what I say about hate, bigotry, etc. Shame!"

Good luck with that, Mr. President. I was in SC last week and it was full of Yankee transplants and short little wetbacks. Democrats were running ads on Hannity against Obamacare repeal. I heard nothing similar from the GOPe.

Great to see that Dr. Kelli Ward is running against Flake Jeff Flake, who is WEAK on borders, crime and a non-factor in Senate. He's toxic!
Lyin’ Lindsay!
I hate Nazis and Communists and have never found anything positive about either in history.
That is not to say that this woman was a Communist, but then that opens the door to the possibility that not everyone at the protest was a Nazi or a Communist. Which means that there were more than “2 sides” present.
Linda Graham needs to go away. She’s upset that Hitlery Rotten Clinton didn’t win. Lindsey called Hillary a “national treasure”.
yeah right.. the brain dead voters of SC will remember alright... and re elect this moron...
you just cant fix stupid...

Absolutely. What struck me the last time I watched a Senate vote is that I didn’t even know who most of those people are, because they don’t live to get their faces on TV . . . unlike Graham and McCain.

South Carolina has open primaries, so the RATS can vote Graham in forever.
Of course, it still comes down to stupid for the Republicans ALLOWING open primaries in the first place. What an idiotic idea!
you really think its JUST dims voting this moron in?? hell no... people of SC are even dumber than he/she is...
Ann Coulter is well-pleased today.
President Trump ‘assailed’ Graham?
Looks to me like it was the other way around. The president merely corrected the facts and put Graham in his place.
I keep waiting for Graham to come down with some wasting disease, but he seems to be following McCain’s path and will be around to sabotage America for decades.
Too bad gerbils have such robust health.
“Lindsey Graham a “publicity seeking” lawmaker”...
Can anyone define what earth shaking decisions Graham has made that has improved America? He’s been the same as the rest of the “do nothings” in Senate.
Remember that McCain was a supporter of Paul Wolfowitz, who was an advocate for invading Iraq. Look what McCain’s poor judgment wrought. Graham is a follower of McCain.
It is dangerous to have someone in the Senate who is labeled a Republican with Graham’s lack of good judgement. He is plenty smart, but is lacking in judgement.
The GOP in SC is fine with Graham occupying the Senate so long as he is labeled a Republican.
Graham has done NOTHING in the Senate but attack conservatism and send young Americans to die in the Middle East.
In other words - the Perfect Republican.
GRaham is a disgrace along with too many Republican scumbags to blame. THey are the enemy right along with leftists. We can no longer vote because they are Republicans.We are better off even with the democrats in power than these traitors.
people need to wake up
