Donald Trump lashed out at former presidential candidate Lindsey Graham in the senator's home state of South Carolina Wednesday.
"This guy Lindsey Graham, he's one of the dumbest human beings I have ever seen, " Trump said at a rally in Bluffton. "He starts hitting me, saying vicious things, ends up with 0%. He left in disgrace."
The business mogul also had a direct message to Graham's constituents.
"Lindsey Graham is a disgrace, and I think you have one of the most worst representatives for the state."
Graham, a former Republican presidential candidate, is campaigning for Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush. Trump and Bush are engaged in a war of words over the Bush family and the Iraq War.
Trump has teased Graham throughout his presidential campaign, most notably last summer when he released Graham's personal cell phone number during a press conference.
CNN has reached out for comment from the Bush campaign and Graham's office.

Most candidates running in a state wouldn’t insult their ten year senior senator, but that’s Donald.
But let’s face it—Linseed is a disgrace. Go Trump.
FIrst, John McCain must be defeated and then Lindsey Graham. They are dangerous to our American way of life. They should both just change their party affiliation to D, because that’s what they are - Democrats at heart.
It was over on Usurpation Day January 20, 2009
Everyone who knew they were swearing in an ineligible man sat on their hands in the District of Corruption.
As a Cruz supporter, I have the same emotions reading this as I do reading about the Sunnis and Shias fighting each other. Kinda refreshing.
Who's calling who a disgrace?
Interview of Donald Trump & Ivanka.
"Ivanka what do you have in common with your father?" Answer: "Real estate and golf"
"Trump, what do you have in common with Ivanka?" Answer: "SEX"
Paraphrase: If Ivanka wasn't my daughter I would probably be dating her.
There is no getting around this, this is just plain sick the things he says about his DAUGHTER.
“No matter what we think about Graham, this is his home state and he has been elected more that once. He does have supporters in SC and Trump is pi$$ing them off. Not a good plan”
Scorched earth on their home base. McCain, now struggling. Yeb, effectively dead. Graham, now on the defensive at home.
Have you never read about the scouring of the Shire? That is what Trump is doing.
Actually, donnie is the perfect example of the saying, ‘you can’t buy class’!
Absolutely agree with you. I think it is disgusting to see Linda every time Bush is on. I don’t like either one but I really despise Linda. Bush can’t do anything to us right now except aggravation. Linda is going to push for nominating the President’s nominee.
Donnie baby, this is starting to get tiresome ...
What did he say that was incorrect?
It is not a matter of “sticking up” for Graham and we know what he has done. WITH THAT SAID, instead of calling him dumb which he may be, why doesn’t Trump explain his flaws, and share the fact that he is preparing to cave on the Supreme Court issue? But why waste his breath on him other than to stir the pot?
What he is doing, is counting on the anger of America. As a matter of fact, I am betting he or his people are keen watchers of FR, so that they get a grasp of what buttons to push. (I say that with respect for FR)
“No matter what we think about Graham, this is his home state and he has been elected more that once. He does have supporters in SC and Trump is pi$$ing them off. Not a good plan, I think.”
It’s a great plan, jstaff. SC Conservatives hate Graham’s guts and consider him a traitor. Graham gets elected by leftist rats crossing over in the open primary and voting for Graham.
How is his wife doing? n/s
No way to call Trump a liar for making a statement like this.
Linda has been a huge disgrace for quite sometime.
Lindsey Graham is a feckless, duplicitous, treacherous, double dealing, backstabbing corksucker.
Donald Chump, our first juvenile Candidate.
Mini-McCain
I think Trump should have been a little more direct and forward with his comments .... the guy is dumber than His Arrogance’s sissy pet rock!
I agree.
