Republicans who can't bring themselves to vote for Donald Trump have a few options — former President George W. Bush just didn't vote for president, according to a spokesman, and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said he cast his ballot for independent conservative Evan McMullin.

At the Trump election party in Manhattan on Tuesday night, Trump advocate Omarosa Manigault, a former contestant on The Apprentice, told the Independent Journal Review that "it's so great our enemies are making themselves clear so that when we get in to the White House, we know where we stand." As for Graham, "I would never judge anybody for exercising their right to and the freedom to choose who they want," she said. "But let me just tell you, Mr. Trump has a long memory and we’re keeping a list." Trump won South Carolina on Tuesday night.
