Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) got the opposite of a warm homecoming welcome when he appeared at a campaign rally for failed former president Donald Trump in Pickens, South Carolina.
Videos circulating on social media show the crowd lustily booing the senior South Carolina senator as he made remarks and introduced the twice-indicted ex-president, with the Greenville News reporting:
Graham, from nearby Oconee County, said he was going to help Trump win the 2024 general election and even pointed out that he was part of the Senate Judiciary Committee that helped bolster the Supreme Court’s conservative sheen. Despite that, the crowd remained unmoved and the booing continued for just over six minutes of Graham’s remarks.
When Trump took the stage, he tried to suggest that South Carolina loved Graham, according to Mediaite.
More loud booing.
Trump:
“But when I need some of those liberal votes, he’s always there to help me get them, okay? We got some pretty liberal people. But he’s good. He’s good. We know the good ones. We know the bad ones, too. We got some real bad ones. But even he makes mistakes on occasion.”
To say it was a very bad day for Lindsey would be the biggest understatement of 2023. Even his own home state hates his guts.
