Donald Trump Throws Support Behind Darline Graham in Bid to Fill Lindsey Graham's Vacant Senate Seat

President Donald Trump has endorsed Sen. Darline Graham for the US Senate seat in South Carolina, a position long held by her late brother, Lindsey Graham. In a post on Truth Social, Trump revealed that he had welcomed Graham to the Oval Office and urged her to join the Republican primary field. Trump stated that he hopes Graham will run, as she would be the best candidate to honor her brother's legacy. The president's endorsement comes as Graham is reportedly considering a campaign for a full six-year Senate term, with the filing period for the special primary set to open on Tuesday. If Graham decides to run, she is likely to be the front runner, backed by Trump and carrying her brother's legacy. Other potential candidates for the seat include Reps. Russell Fry, Nancy Mace, and Ralph Norman, as well as South Carolina Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette.
