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 there’s 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 Trump’s somewhere out there, somewhere saying something, I don’t know where he’s at. So, so, I think there’s a more traditional view of foreign policy emerging on the Republican side. It’s one of the reasons I wanted to run for president."

Sorry, Linda but you dropped out.
Interesting quote later in story to accompany the headline
Grahamnesty might get elected?
Remember he was going to have a rotating first lady if he became president? Due to the fact that he’s not married, he was going to have various women relatives fill the role???
oh well, we will never find out how that would have worked out.
I live in South Carolina and I wish Lindsey Graham would just go away. In the last election (2014) I voted for Senator Tim Scott, who seems to be a pretty solid guy, but I refused to vote for Graham because he bugs me so much (obviously I didn’t vote for the Dem either). Polls show he’s unpopular amongst Republicans in SC, unlike Scott and Haley.
Did Lindsey learn that at the Bilderberg meeting in Dresden a couple of weeks ago?
If he is so unpopular, why was he reelected this election instead of his opponent?
More douchebaggery from the pro-Hillary RATs (Republicans Against Trump).
Linda pouts.
Graham single handedly saved Bill Clinton from removal from office. It was his vote that killed the most serious charge against Clinton.
If she runs, I’ll vote for Minnie Mouse. She will be great in DC, the
the largest Mickey Mouse Kingdom!
She has been saying Hillery, is * -—king* Goofy!
Then again, the word could be *talking*, you decide.
He wants to be Hillary’s first lady.
So in other words, America is about to get a very clear and painful demonstration on the wide variety of reasons that every president until this one was a man. We already got a few painful lessons on what happens when you elect a Muslim instead of a Christian.
So Linda can’t support Trump because he doesn’t share his view of sending American boys off to fight conflicts that aren’t in our national interest? What a tough guy. This effeminate pansy sure can act tough with other people’s kids.
Only if Lindsey Graham had won.
I wish Graham and McCain would both depart from the scene.
Hey - he can be one ~whatever~ one day and the next day depending how he feels, he can be the other.
Such a deal!
CNAS, where Linda was speaking, is a ‘Rat thinktank closely associated with the Obama admin. It figures that Graham would go to suck up to Obama-Clinton DemocRATs there.
There is no way that Hillary will rebuild our military.
