Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) once bragged to authors Peter Baker and Susan Glasser — who have just published The Divider — about his access to Donald Trump and told them about Trump’s boasts about his closeness with evangelicals, The Independent reports.

He said Trump had told him: “Those fucking Christians love me.”

Graham added: “He’s a lying motherfucker… He could kill fifty people on our side and it wouldn’t matter.”
