What happened
The outlets' own sentences, most widely reported first. Hover one for who reported it.
“Annie ‘Trannie’ Andrews is running against our wonderful Darline Graham for the Senate in South Carolina,” Trump began a Truth Social post in support of Graham, the sister of the late Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) who was appointed to fill his seat following his unexpected death July 11.
Andrews, a physician, has previously said she does not support gender-affirming surgery for minors or transgender athletes’ participating in women’s sports.
“Trannie is not for South Carolina, and South Carolina must show, in the upcoming Election, that it is not for her,” the president went on.
If you care more about your bills than the politics in Washington, this campaign is for you.'
