Lindsey Graham pushes back on Trump’s NASCAR tweet. “They're trying to grow the sport," Graham said, referring to ban of Confederate flags. "And I've lived in South Carolina all my life and if you're in business, the Confederate flag is not a good way to grow your business."
“The idea that Bubba Wallace, who's the only, I think, African American driver was upset by somebody finding a noose in the garage made perfect sense to me,” Graham said on Fox radio.
“So what I would tell people from outside of South Carolina that NASCAR is trying to grow the sport and one way you grow the sport is you take images that divide us and ask that they not be brought into the venue. That makes sense to me,” Graham said
Graham on Trump tweet: “Well, I don't think Bubba Wallace has anything to apologize for .. You saw the best in NASCAR. When there was a chance that it was a threat against Bubba Wallace...
“...they all rallied to Bubba's side, so I would be looking to celebrate that kind of attitude more than being worried about it being a hoax."
