A claim is circulating that Donald Trump has handpicked Lindsey Graham's sister to succeed the South Carolina senator, with critics urging journalists to ask her about Graham's famous 2016 warning: 'If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed... and we will deserve it.' The quote, from before Graham later aligned with Trump, is being recirculated to highlight his political reversal. No official confirmation of any successor pick has been reported.
