Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) hit out at the four Democratic freshman congresswomen that President Donald Trump previously spoke out against, calling them “anti-Semitic” and un-American.
Graham also took the opportunity to chastise Trump for going on the offensive against the four women, suggesting that he “aim higher.”
On Sunday, Trump was accused of racism after suggesting on Twitter that progressive congresswomen should “go back” to countries they “originally came from.” Although the president did not name names, the tweets were most likely directed at Reps.
