Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who recently compared the choice between Donald Trump and Ted Cruz as that of being shot or drinking poison, has privately urged a group of Republican donors to now support his party’s presumptive nominee, according to a report.
Teresa Dailey, an attendee at a GOP fundraiser in Florida on Saturday, told CNN that Graham said, “We need to get behind him.”
The former presidential candidate himself has also previously said that Trump is not a reliable conservative and does not have the temperament to be president, among other fierce criticisms. A Graham spokesman confirmed to CNN that Graham attended the fundraiser, but did not address his specific remarks. “There hasn’t been any change in his position,” Graham spokesman Kevin Bishop said. “He’s been pretty upfront and outspoken.” Read more at CNN.

IT SEEMS TRUMP HAS JOINED THE ESTABLISHMENT.
Of course he was going to! His only principle ever has been Trump. He has walked back every controversial statement he made during primary season and he now realized he needs the very money he sneered at just months ago (including from Jewish donors).
Trump has been doing very well without Lindsey Grahamnesty’s endorsement and without the donor-class’ money, thank you very much. Is this an establishment’s sneaky attempt to sabotage Trump in the eyes of his supporters? All the libs are salivating: now they can pretend that their Hillary is not the only one taking Arabic, Chinese and Wall Street’s money.
