The posts from the former president came after the senator from South Carolina said he “respectfully” disagreed with Trump’s stance on abortion Monday.
Sen. Lindsey O. Graham , seen here in February 2023, said Monday he “respectfully” disagreed with former president Donald Trump's assertion that abortion access should be left to states to decide. Former president Donald Trump lashed out at Sen. Lindsey O. Graham on Monday after Graham expressed public disagreement with Trump’s latest statement on his abortion position.
“The Democrats are thrilled with Lindsey, because they want this issue to simmer for as long a period of time as possible,” Trump said. “We cannot let our Country suffer any further damage by losing Elections on an issue that should always have been decided by the States, and now will be,” Trump said.Speaking to reporters at the Capitol on Monday, Graham said he has been “very consistent” about his views on abortion policy, and argued that his 15-week ban bill is “designed to prevent abortions except for rape, incest, life of the mother.
Though Graham and Trump were once political rivals — Graham mounted a brief bid for the 2016 GOP presidential nomination and during the raceRepublicans against nominating Trump for president — the South Carolina Republican cozied up to Trump once he became the clear leader of the Republican Party.
