Senator Lindsey Graham commented on U.S. foreign relations and domestic politics in a series of posts on September 18, 2025. Graham highlighted President Trump’s recent visit to the United Kingdom, addressed the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, and discussed progress in Senate confirmations of executive nominees.
In a post at 18:29 UTC, Graham expressed his approval of President Trump’s diplomatic efforts abroad: “President Trump has had a highly successful visit to the United Kingdom. I greatly appreciate the Royal Family and Great Britain’s political leadership for warmly welcoming @POTUS and @FLOTUS.
The U.S. and UK have a truly special relationship. These investment deals will make it” (September 18, 2025).
Later that evening at 22:13 UTC, Graham referenced comments by President Trump regarding the Russia-Ukraine war: “As usual, @POTUS put his finger on the crux of the problem when it comes to ending the Russia-Ukraine war. He rightly told @marthamaccallum that if Europe joined America in sanctioning China for buying cheap Russian oil, this war would end.
To our European allies: This war is in https://t.co/BUtxxi4lAZ” (September 18, 2025).
At 22:43 UTC on the same day, Graham reported developments in Senate proceedings related to presidential nominations: “Great news. The Republican Senate just broke through the historic Democrat obstruction of President @realDonaldTrump’s executive nominees.
Today, we confirmed 48 of the President’s pending nominations, and there are many more to follow. https://t.co/l0B2V2Dn47″ (September 18, 2025).
Lindsey Graham is a U.S. Senator from South Carolina and an influential member of several Senate committees.
