Sen. Graham: Caitlyn Jenner Should ‘Vote for Me’

Senator and 2016 candidate Lindsey Graham (R-SC) told CNN’s Dana Bash this morning that if Caitlyn Jenner agreed with him on national security, he’d happily accept her vote.

“If Caitlyn Jenner wants to be safe and have a prosperous economy, vote for me,” Graham said. “I’m into addition.”

“I haven’t walked in her shoes,” Graham continued. “I don’t have all the answers to the mysteries of life, and I can only imagine the torment Bruce Jenner went through. I’m a pro-life, traditional kind of guy, but I’m running to be President of the United States. If Caitlyn Jenner wants to be a Republican, she is welcome in my party.” (Note the pronoun correction in the video.)

Graham then pivoted to ISIS and Social Security, like a pro.
