Lindsey Graham endorses, fundraises for.....Ted Cruz

South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham today pledged to help Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz “in every way I can,” calling the Texas senator the best alternative to GOP front-runner Donald Trump.

“I'm going to raise money for him in the pro-Israel community,” Graham said in an interview with CNN, adding, “If I were in one of the states coming up, in terms of voting and I didn't like Trump, I would vote for Cruz.”

In January, for instance, he said nominating Cruz, or Trump, would be the “death” of the Republican Party.

“If you nominate Trump and Cruz, I think you get the same outcome,” Graham said, according to The New York Times. “Whether it’s death by being shot or poisoning doesn’t really matter. I don’t think the outcome will be substantially different.”
