Republican Senator Lindsey Graham has warned former President Donald Trump that he risks losing the presidential election if he continues to focus on personal attacks against Vice President Kamala Harris instead of addressing key policy issues.

Graham advised Trump to use the remaining days before the election to outline his policies, particularly on critical topics such as border security and inflation.

During an appearance on NBC's Meet the Press, Graham emphasized that 'policy is the key to the White House' and criticized campaigns that dwell on crowd sizes or racial discussions.

Graham echoed the sentiments of former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, who urged the campaign to focus on substantive issues to secure a win.

While Graham believes Trump has the potential to win the election, he cautioned that Trump's current approach as a 'provocateur' and 'showman' may not resonate in today's political climate.

Graham described Harris as the most liberal presidential nominee in U.S. history, asserting that the election should center around policy debates rather than personal attacks.

Trump has made controversial statements questioning Harris's racial identity, inaccurately claiming she shifted her identity from Indian to Black.

During a rally in Pennsylvania, instead of addressing key voter issues, Trump focused on personal differences with Harris as her poll numbers rise.

Graham made his comments during an appearance on Meet The Press, supporting Nikki Haley's advice for Republicans to stop discussing Harris's race.

The relationship between Graham and Trump has evolved from criticism during Trump's rise in 2016 to a more supportive stance, despite occasional disagreements.

Graham previously disagreed with Trump regarding abortion being a states' rights issue earlier in 2024.

Trump's recent comments about Harris have included disparaging remarks about her race, intelligence, and appearance, including a claim that he is 'better looking' than her.
