Lindsey Graham Ripped For 'Sanctimonious' Election Night Messages To 'Democratic Friends'
HuffPost
The Donald Trump acolyte urged Democrats to "take a deep breath" and drew ire.
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) received angry responses from both sides of the aisle over a message he sent “to my Democratic friends” late on election night.
“Take a deep breath,” wrote the Donald Trump acolyte Tuesday, as the results came in and GOP nominee Trump’s victory looked likely.
“The sun will rise. The world will turn and despite what Oprah says, we will have another election,” Graham added, then urging his Republican allies to “get ready to govern and turn the country around.”
In another message, Graham told his “Democratic colleagues” that he’d “been there.”
“Let’s work together where we can and improve the country. Our best days are ahead,” he added. “You will be amazed how much President Trump wants to do big things, working together.”
