On Tuesday, she left jaws on the floor as she debated with Rep. Ralph Norman, her opponent in the runoff election to permanently succeed her brother as senator for South Carolina. <\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Graham, who led the South Carolina Commission for the Blind, a state-level government agency, before filling in for her brother, admitted she was \u201cnot that informed on national security\u201d when questioned about Taiwan and the South China Sea, earning groans from the crowd. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Now, she has been cornered on the humiliating gaffe. On Wednesday, she took questions from voters at a restaurant in Florence, South Carolina.<\/p>\n<p>A young man asked about the flop. \u201cAre there any concerns about credibility in the U.S. Senate for someone who does not have the experience for issues like geopolitics and stuff like that? There are votes that go toward declaring war. How can we trust, as constituents, that you will make the right decision if you are not informed on national security positions at this time?\u201d he asked. <\/p>\n<p>She leaned in on the \u201chonesty\u201d angle. \u201cI answered it honestly. I\u2019m not a national security expert. Lindsay was. He talked a lot about national security. He spent 33 years in the Air Force. He had a military background. That was his focus,\u201d she explained. <\/p>\n<p>She then tried to claim that no one really cares about Taiwan and the South China Sea. \u201cAs I walk around this room and I ask people if you are concerned about Taiwan, they said they are concerned about the price of groceries. The price of gas. Rising healthcare costs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=5774\">Fox News Forced to Admit Embarrassing Trump Truth<\/a><\/p>\n<p>After plugging kitchen table issues, she went back to the \u201chonesty\u201d gambit. \u201cIs national security important? Absolutely. Can I learn? I\u2019m smart. I will learn. I will become informed. Everybody has a first day on the job\u2026 I will always be honest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in the evening, she joked about the faux pas. \u201cI got the Taiwan question wrong, we all know that,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n<p>It comes after Graham went on Fox News\u2019 <i>Hannity<\/i> on Wednesday night to explain her lack of knowledge on the sensitive foreign policy issue. Stammering, she told host Sean Hannity: \u201cI, I, I tripped up on one question last night, uh, regarding Taiwan. But, you know, I\u2019ve said many times, I\u2019m not a politician, certainly not a career politician. I don\u2019t speak politician.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know, I was just honest, and I think that\u2019s kind of a foreign concept, but I talked to several people today. I traveled around the state, and they said, \u2018You know, we appreciated the fact that you were honest.\u2019 And I did say several times that, you know, China is, uh, our, our enemy, our military and economic threat to the United States.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She added: \u201cOf course, Taiwan is our friend, but I think people in South Carolina are more worried about making ends meet. They\u2019re concerned about boys and girls\u2019 sports. One lady talked to me extensively about that today. Uh, they\u2019re concerned about the Second Amendment. Um, they\u2019re concerned about the Save America Act, uh, illegal, illegal immigration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo they\u2019re concerned about a lot of other things other than Taiwan.\u201d<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Former Fox News star Megyn Kelly, 55, branded the flop \u201cdisqualifying\u201d and said she was \u201cmortified\u201d by it. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=5772\">CNN Airs Claim That Trump Is Physically Incapable of Having an Affair<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lindsey Graham\u2019s sister has been cornered on her embarrassing debate flop, where she spectacularly fumbled an easy question.
