Read at The New Republic →President Donald Trump rued the late Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) for getting the "last laugh" against him during his speech at Graham's funeral on Tuesday.Graham and Trump had a contentious relationship early in Trump's political career, but things seemed to smooth out between them over time. Graham had since become one of Trump's most staunch allies in the Senate and played a considerable role in passing Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill" and in confirming Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. Even so, Trump shared that it was Graham who had the "last laugh" in their relationship. "I miss him greatly," Trump said. "As you remember, Lindsey and I did not exactly get off to the best of starts running against each other back in 2016. Lindsey said something rather nasty on his flight to becoming the next president of the United States. So, naturally, I did something that I shouldn't have done. I shared his personal cell phone number with the millions of people that happened to be watching that particular day, as I made a speech, a very important speech." "And I remember the number ... If anybody wants to give it a shot," Trump added. "His phone exploded. He said, I had that number for 20 years. I don't know what he did with it, but it exploded. That was the beginning of a friendship in a way. But it was Lindsey who had the last laugh, because while I blew up his phone, all for one day, we became great friends, and Lindsey did not stop calling me for the next ten years."
