Senator Lindsey Graham was a tough cookie who loved being a politician and there was nobody quite like him, U.S. President Donald Trump said.

Transcript:

TRUMP: "There was nobody like him. He loved being a politician, and he was going to win his election. He was going to win it big. I endorsed him very early, and he was going to win it big. He just had it made, and he just loved being a politician. I said the reason I’m endorsing you is I have to make sure you would, because if you didn’t win, I don't think you can handle life. He was a man – you know, there are guys that can lose and they go into something else. I can’t imagine him doing anything else. If you weren’t a U.S. senator, I don’t know if you could live very long and look what happens. He was going to have a big victory, and the people loved him. Everybody loved him. Well, no, he had some enemies – he was a tough cookie. Don’t misunderstand. He was a tough cookie in many ways. If he wanted to get something, if he thought he was right and had people against him he could be very tough, actually, but he was a good person."
