Whether it's Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton, the next president will need to deal with setting aside defense cuts as part of sequestration, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said Monday, though he gave an indication as to which gender he expects the 45th commander in chief to be.
The next president, whoever he or she most likely she is going to be, needs to get these defense cuts set aside," Graham remarked during a discussion at the Center for a New American Security's conference.
Graham also took a shot at Trump, his former presidential primary rival, in discussing the spectrum of Republican viewpoints on defense.
"The bottom line: I think theres a fight within the Republican Party for who we are on foreign policy, from the Rand Paul view to the Lindsey Graham, John McCain view," Graham said. "And Trumps somewhere out there, somewhere saying something, I dont know where hes at. So, so, I think theres a more traditional view of foreign policy emerging on the Republican side. Its one of the reasons I wanted to run for president."

Yeah, and you got your clock cleaned.
This is inexcusable. I'm sure cheers went up at the Hillary camp. The Republicans are literally helping her more than her own party; they're her biggest supporters!
I'm going to say he wants her win. He wants the same old establishment politics. He probably agrees more with Hillary on foreign policy and immigration. Their goal is for Trump to lose, and then they can say "I told you so, silly people! We need a traditional candidate." This is ignoring the fact their RINOs lost two consecutive presidential elections. They would rather lose and try again in 4 years with their guy, painting themselves as white knights fighting against Hillary (although I'm sure they will do about as well as they do fighting against Obama). They don't care about the will of the people, of their own party members who enable them to have the power that they have. Disgraceful.
Ms. Lindsay is running for President? Who knew?
You mean he'll be Donna Trump by January 2017?
What, The Donald is going trans-gender? LOL!
LINDA SHUT UP you are making a fool of yourself AS USUAL!!! N
Here’s a guy who couldn’t even make the main stage at the debates.
Traditional “professional politician” view of foreign ain’t really what the real American people want, you dumb sh*t...
That’s what got us where we are...We want a view of foreign policy that is “America First”...
GET IT?????????????????
He’s planning a sex change?
Just like the EU the elites love the wrong side
“”””Heres a guy who couldnt even make the main stage at the debates.””””
Yup, she had to sit at the kids table.
Linda is likely to be a she.
Fixed it for her.
Linda! Sarah isn't even Running!
Whatever Trump's fate he is enshrined in many hearts as the man who brought consciousness of the falsity of the "Uniparty" philosophy to the rest of us.
Does Graham still think the delegates will find a way to reject Trump? And then nominate Graham? Then Lindsey will be the first female president? That’s quite a stretch but reality hasn’t been Graham’s strength.
Does this mean Linda Graham is restarting her campaign?
Hell, no one pointed out the kicker, he wants to ramp up government spending and get rid of the cuts that were made previously. Moar spending, moar debt, moar war. That's all this tool brings us.
Trump is going north and Graham is crawling south.
Ditto. Better yet: Linda, STFU.
He sounds more than happy with that outcome as well.
