Former presidential candidate (and Jeb Bush endorser) Sen. Lindsey Graham offered a dire warning to the Republican Party on Monday about the prospect of nominating Donald Trump.
"Donald Trump is the most unelectable Republican I've seen in my lifetime," he said. "Every problem we had in 2012, he's made worse." Graham also suggested that choosing Trump would guarantee a GOP loss come November, because "dishonest beats crazy."
