Trump told the crowd that Graham had previously been "begging" for a mention on the Fox New show "Fox & Friends" when the real estate mogul still made regular weekly appearances.
"I wrote the number down! I don't know if it's the right number, but let's try it," Trump said, proceeding to read the 10-digit phone number.
Trump said it was an old number so it might not be work. He then repeated the number.
Politico reported that it called Graham at that number after Trump gave it out and the senator picked up.
When it comes to the Donald, nothing surprises me anymore, Graham told Politico on Tuesday. Its just too bad, really."

Oh my god I'm loving this. We could have our very first troll President.

(1,539 posts)Slugging back and hitting harder than you were hit may intimidate others from launching attacks.
If Hillary was hitting back, all here would be thrilled. When Donald does it, all of a sudden it is wrong.
One thing Donald is doing is saturating media time. This is drowning out the other and may work to his advantage.

(362 posts)This speech was given in Sun City Hilton Head, an over 55 "active adult " community. I live there and this is a gated community and was only open to residents and press. I am VP of the Democratic Club and there was a quiet, polite rally outside, under the banner of the Lowcountry Immigration Coalition.
Trump called the people there rich. We are not; there are many much more deluxe communities between us and Hilton Head Island. And what cracks me up is that many of us could afford a comfortable life style because of union jobs like teachers, government workers and jobs that provided a decent pension. The GOP is a party of old grumpy and il-informed men and women

(27,866 posts)I was thinking of more the, tough, no non-sense guy ready to take on the opposition. If Trump was VP he would be Bush's pit bull, sent out to attack any and everyone who criticized the administration. Whether or not Trump could agree to be #2 is another question.

Bush's father picked Dan Quayle as veep, thus insuring that no one would even THINK about shooting him.

Oh, Mr Lindsay, when you are not being silly about the Iran deal or obstructing the people's business for tax cuts for the rich, you might be a nice man.
Oh never mind.
