Lindsey Graham: ‘Lucifer is the only person Trump could beat in an election’



Republican Lindsey Graham had harsh words for GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump Sunday morning, saying the candidate would be hard pressed to beat anyone in an election — unless he was running against Lucifer himself.

Appearing on Face The Nation, the South Carolina Republican affirmed his support for fellow Senator Ted Cruz, but trashed the candidate who is the odds-on favorite to head the GOP ticket in November.

Graham, who is reluctantly supporting Cruz in the primaries after his own campaign flamed out, began by noting that former Speaker of the House John Boehner called Cruz “Lucifer in the flesh” in an interview last week.

“There’s been a lot of talk about Lucifer,” Graham said. “I think Lucifer is the only person Trump could beat in a general election. When it comes to women and Hispanics, Trump polls like Lucifer.”

in it. All the billions the money people have spent on things like Citizens United and other things manage to do nothing but all the fruitcakes to take over the Republican Party. I bet they wish they could go back to an Eisenhower Nixon party.

Lindsey Graham just isn't very good at predicting elections.

From the rumors I've heard, Senator Graham is throwing stones in a glass closet. Good luck with that, Senator. I'd love to see you both ruined.
