Trump Ignites GOP Backlash With Lindsey Graham’s Sister

President Donald Trump’s endorsement of Darline Graham to succeed her late brother for a full Senate term has sparked a backlash among his supporters.

Graham, a disability services worker who had never held elected office, was chosen by South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster to fill Lindsey Graham’s seat after the senator suddenly died earlier this month.

While the appointment was originally viewed as a placeholder for the remainder of Lindsey Graham’s current term, which ends in early 2027, Darline announced unexpectedly that she was also running for a full six-year term, earning Trump’s endorsement in the upcoming Republican primary.
