President-elect Donald Trump took no prisoners in a contentious press conference Tuesday.
A reporter questioned Trump on a bill Graham and Sen. John McCain are proposing to increase sanctions on Russia.
I havent heard Lindsey Graham is going to do that. Lindsey Graham, Lindsey Graham, Ive been competing with him for a long time. Hes going to crack that 1 percent barrier one day, Trump quipped.

Add Republican Senators Ben Sasse, Jeff Flake, and Cory Gardner to that.
If that cracked up a room full of reporters, I’ve suddenly loss my hearing. I didn’t hear a peep out of anyone!
Lol!! Linda can only aspire to be in the league of Tippy Toes.
Love it.
Me too. I live in SC and can’t stand the guy. The more he stays on the bad side of Trump, maybe many more will get on the bandwagon and get behind another candidate to unseat this creep.
Did he just win? Does that mean he is in till 2026?
Or am I wrong with the numbers. He would be 86.
Can you believe people actually put $115 million dollars or so behind Jeb Bush?
He surely was the “designated loser” to their “sister” Hillary.
The Cheap Labor Express bet on both of them.
I don’t know anyone in this state who likes him, and I live here...
Thank you. Agree completely.
That’s why I was afraid during the presidential race.
No one knew anyone who liked obama in 2012 yet he won.
We just don’t know what people do once in the booth.
As a Northerner, I’ve hear a lot how those who moved ruined some states. And I believe it.
But did it have an effect on South Carolina? Would McCain possibly have won the primary because the republicans that moved down there are a little less conservative?
The factor you’re looking for is SC’s open primary system, where Democrats vote in the GOP primary in game-changing numbers because Democratic nominees never win here.
Creates a perverse situation where Republicans only partially determine the Republican nominee.
Many have identified the problem quite clearly... the question is will it ever change, I don’t know.
Im surprised South Carolina likes this guy.

It’s an open primary state. Democrats vote in the republican primary because they know a democrat won’t win the general election. This keeps us from getting a true conservative.
I wouldn’t call that “mocking”.
Heck even without Northerners, that’s HARD to get a conservative!!
Even if only 40 percent of the electorate is dem, that’s a STAGGERING number who can vote for the moderate, or traitor, in this case.
I DONT UNDERSTAND the reasoning behind that rule?!?!
Who decides this kind of thing?
WTF?!?! Who can change this rule? Can the state legislature change it?
It makes NO SENSE in ANY state for ANY reason.
