Lindsey Graham Warns Trump To Drop The 'Showman' Schtick... Or Lose The Election

The South Carolina senator said Trump could easily win the presidential race, if he makes his campaign about issues instead of insults.
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) told Donald Trump to focus on Vice President Kamala Harris’ (D) policies over personal attacks if he wants to win the election this fall.
During a Sunday appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” the South Carolina senator said the former president was at risk of losing the 2024 race if he continues with his insult-driven campaign.
“President Trump can win this election,” Graham told moderator Kristen Welker. “His policies are good for America, and if you have a policy debate for president, he wins. Donald Trump the provocateur, the showman, may not win this election.”
Asked if he agreed with former Governor Nikki Haley, who called out Trump earlier in the week for being fixated on talking about crowd size or knocking Harris’ intelligence, Graham said there were better ways to go after the vice president.
“Yeah. I don’t think — I don’t look at Vice President Kamala Harris as a lunatic,” he explained. “I look at her as the most liberal person to be nominated for president in the history of the United States.”
