In his first post at 16:45 UTC, Graham wrote, “It’s an honor to fight for America’s future with you, @realDonaldTrump! “

Later that afternoon at 18:54 UTC, he thanked attendees of a local event and referenced opposition from Democrats. He stated, “Thanks to all those who came out to the Beacon Drive-In this afternoon. Even the Democrats made time to show their Trump Derangement Syndrome today. To those who try to stop me from enacting the America First agenda I say, bring it on.”

Concluding his day at another gathering in Anderson County, Graham shared at 22:23 UTC: “Ending the day here with my friends in Anderson County. South Carolina is fired up to see the America First agenda in action. Thanks for all your questions and for coming by.”

Lindsey Graham is a U.S. Senator representing South Carolina and has been an active supporter of Donald Trump and his policies since Trump’s presidency. The “America First” agenda refers to a set of policy priorities championed by Trump focusing on economic nationalism, immigration control, and prioritizing American interests in foreign policy.
