Trump: Graham telling 'disgusting lie' about my Charlottesville remarks
President Trump early Thursday attacked Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) over his criticism of Trumps response to last weekend's violence in Charlottesville, Va., warning that "the people of South Carolina will remember!
Publicity seeking Lindsey Graham falsely stated that I said there is moral equivalency between the KKK, neo-Nazis & white supremacists and people like Ms. Heyer. Such a disgusting lie. He just can't forget his election trouncing.The people of South Carolina will remember! Trump tweeted.
Graham on Wednesday said Trumps reaction to the violence was dividing the country, saying he made a moral equivalency between white supremacists who organized the weekend rally and Heather Heyer, a 32-year-old counterprotester who was killed after being hit by a car allegedly driven by a man with far-right views.
"I, along with many others, do not endorse this moral equivalency," Graham said. "Many Republicans ... will fight back against the idea that the Party of Lincoln has a welcome mat out for the David Dukes of the world."
