Late Night Roundup: Lindsey Graham vs. Donald Trump (He Wishes!)

Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) appeared with Seth Meyers, and was asked about Donald Trump’s surge in the polls. His response: “Well my initial impression was that insulting a whole class of people was a bad move — but apparently not!”
