Sen. Lindsey Graham fought back against Donald Trump Sunday after a week of trading barbs in the press.
"I would ask the Republican Party to understand why most major companies are firing Mr. Trump, and I don't think we should hire him," the South Carolina Republican said Sunday on ABC's "This Week."
"I'm taking on an idea that I think he's appealing to the dark side of American politics," Graham said. "He is not offering solutions to hard, complicated problems, and he's basically selling fear and prejudice."
Trump, who is also attempting to get the Republican presidential nod, escalated a feud with the senator when he gave out Graham's personal cell phone number during a speech.
Graham responded by shooting a video with IJ Review in which he employed various creative methods of destroying his cell phone.
"Donald Trump has done something my staff could never get me to do, which is get a new phone," Graham joked Sunday.
But he condemned Trump's often caustic campaign style.
"If you say most illegal immigrants are drug dealers and rapists, there are people that want to believe that," Graham said. "There's a market in my party, if you say outrageous things."
Graham is such a turd.
Buh-bye, Lindsay.
And pathological liars are the good side. OK.
Amazing.
Hillary Clinton is clearly guilty of serious felonies regarding classified information, gross malfeasance and perjury in the Benghazi case, and a 40 year history of corruption with her indicted co-conspirator, the aging rapist...her “husband”.
But who do cardboard “republicans” reserve the most vitriol for?
Why the man they hit up for millions of course.
There is no dark side of American politics really. Matter of fact, it’s all dark.
The problems are complicated? Typical lying politician.
This is total convoluted deceit and evasion.
I don't recall Lindsey speaking out about Hussein's comments.
This morning, I thought he gave Graham a real opportunity to sound presidential, to be the adult in the Republican primary playpen. And what does Graham do instead? Say that Trump supporters have succumbed to the dark side.
Amazing.
Selling fear and prejudice.... Is that worse than selling your bunghole to the highest bidder, Lindsey?
...and Graham is selling Kool-aid
No, it isn’t HIS bung hole he is selling...
He must not have gotten the GOP Memo telling Republicans to STOP ATTACKING EACH OTHER.
...unless that memo only applied to Trump.
Will someone please enlighten me on the specific serious problems that Lindsay Graham and his ilk have solved during his tenure in the Senate. OK, just one will do.
Lil’ Linseed is a skinny dog whining to gain a crumb of attention that falls from Trump’s richly-laden table. Pathetic.
The Republican Bosses must be telling gram to do this - maybe because everyone knows Gram is going nowhere in this Primary and he just won his seat again in SC, so he’s safe there too.
The bosses, of course, cannot do the attacking themselves, as Trump will unload on them and that can hurt bad. But Trump unloading on gram, keeps the firing off to the side.
Yeah, cause even though pretty white ladies are being murdered by filthy wetbacks is nothing to fear. The liberals only want us to fear what they say to fear.
