Republican presidential candidate Sen. Lindsey Graham (SC) said in an interview with CNN on Tuesday that fellow candidate Donald Trump has tapped into the "dark side" of the GOP.
Graham was explaining how his rival has managed to dominate the Republican presidential race, polling as high as 35 percent depending on the survey. Graham said the support still represented a minority of the GOP.
Twenty-five percent of our party that probably thinks Obama was born in Kenya or wants to believe that. Theres 25 percent of our party wants him to be a Muslim because they hate him so much," Graham said. "So, theres a dark side of politics that Mr. Trump is appealing to."
Graham initially used the interview to defend his dismal poll numbers in his home state, South Carolina, but pivoted into a more specific attack on the GOP frontrunner. He said a Trump nomination would "kill" the GOP.
"The leader of our party has come up with a deportation plan that is Joseph McCarthy-like and he is saying things about Megyn Kelly and other women that are digging a big hole. And the chairman of our party said Trump was a net positive. Let me tell you, I think he's hurting our party."
He also said Trump's plan to get rid of birthright citizenship was constitutionally unsound.
"He's shallow. He's ill-prepared to be commander in chief," Graham said. "He doesn't know what he's talking about in terms of how our laws work. He says the worst things possible about immigrants and women. And he's a complete idiot about Mideast policy."
Trump's strategy to defeat the Islamic State terrorist group, he said, was worse than President Obama's, a strategy with which Graham has repeatedly voiced discontent.
Graham used some of his Southern charm to end the interview: "Come to South Carolina. I'll beat his brains out."
Cracking up !
Hahahaha
Any thinking human being who is aware of what Obama has done and how he behaves has to consider the possibility that Obama is a Muslim.
Obama is certainly acts like a secular Muslim - look at his policy in Syria, Egypt, Iran, Iraq and Afghanistan. He’s taken the pro Muslim anti American interest in everyone of these matters. Worst of all Graham knows this but is afraid to say it.
How hard could it have been to get photos of Lindsey and his paramours? That’s why we didn’t want homosexuals having security clearances until BHO showed up.
Graham shows why he still doe snot get it
Graham believes in raising the banner of pale pastels.
His admin have made it public though they are worried over ISIS , because they have targeted homosexuals.
I can’t wait for grown ups instead o of over aged college kids to get in control again and make the country how it was, instead of this lunatic nut case agenda these idiots have .
IMHO Trump appeals to every conservative that is ready to flush Graham, McDonnell, Snow, Bohner and the rest of their merry little Traitorous Cabal of Constitutionally Challenged Cretinous Cohorts down the toilet to their rightful final political resting place with Obama’s RINO Praetorian Guard and their media conspirators.
Trump isn’t perfect, far from it. But at least he’s not another PC “professional” political career munchkin that won’t answer “paper or plastic?” without consulting handlers or a focus group. He has focused much needed atention on issues that have languished for decades in our cowardly keep your job at all costs / national interests be damned political system. I say “More power to him!”.
Darth Trump to the GOPe, DEMs, and open border traitors. LMAO

Funny thing is—Joe McCarthy was right. America’s power elite destroyed him for telling the truth.
Linda’s slip is showing.
Graham is a petty little creep who doesn’t like that fact that most folks hate his guts.
If Obama were Christian, I would expect him to look at all the people who don’t believe his claims on his religion and rethink how he lives his life. If large numbers of people could watch me for seven years and be unable to tell that I was Christian, I would be ashamed of myself. As it is though, I think Obama’s handlers are worried about how to partially maintain the fiction instead of him worrying about how he lives his alleged faith.
Apparently the dark side is gifted with powers to deduce the obvious.
Catylin Graham speaks!
Sheesh, why is the misguided mental midget still be allowed in the party?
Talk about ‘bombastic’ or ‘divisive’, it ain’t Trump.
