Trump backs Darline Graham in SC Senate bid, urging voters to treat him as on the ballot

Donald Trump headlined a Myrtle Beach rally to boost Darline Graham’s Senate run in South Carolina, framing the race as a referendum on his agenda and asking voters to pretend he’s on the ballot. Graham, who advanced to the runoff against Ralph Norman, faced GOP blowback after a debate misstep on the U.S.-Taiwan relationship, drawing criticism from Nikki Haley and Mark Sanford. Trump defended her loyalty to his priorities and noted his endorsements have faced losses elsewhere, while signaling he will deploy MAGA Inc. funds to back strong Republican candidates.
