Washington (CNN) No one has been a bigger convert on President Donald Trump than Lindsey Graham. Way back in 2015, when the South Carolina senator was challenging the billionaire businessman for the Republican presidential nomination, Graham said this of Trump: "You know how you make America great again? "To every Republican, if you don't stand behind this President, we're not going to stand behind you," Graham said in South Carolina recently . On Thursday morning, we got hard evidence that proves a) why Graham is playing so nice with Trump and b) that it's working. That's similar to Trump's 82% job approval rating among South Carolina Republicans in that same poll.
