\n

Tim Scott defended fellow US South Carolina<\/a> Republican senator Darline Graham\u2019s knowledge of national security issues ahead of their state\u2019s runoff election on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Graham, who was appointed to fill the Senate seat held by her brother Lindsey Graham after his sudden death in July, is in a Republican primary runoff against South Carolina<\/a> congressman Ralph Norman. During a debate between the two on Tuesday night, Graham struggled to answer a question about US national security interests in Taiwan and the South China Sea.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

\u201cI\u2019m just going to be honest here. I\u2019m not that informed on national security,\u201d she said <\/a>during the debate. She added: \u201cNational security is not my thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Scott tried to assuage concerns about her experience on Sunday when he was asked about Graham\u2019s qualifications \u2013 and whether a US senator should have an understanding of national security issues.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, the answer is yes. And she does,\u201d he said during an interview on NBC\u2019s Meet the Press.<\/a> He went on to give an answer that did not detail any of her national security experience.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe question we\u2019re asking ourselves today is whether or not she is prepared to serve in the United States Senate and represent the people of South Carolina on the issues that are germane to the moment, with all the issues of the moment,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd is she prepared to hit those issues? She hits those issues spot-on.\u201d<\/p>\n

Graham held various public policy jobs in South Carolina \u2013 but never had run for or held public office before she was appointed to the Senate.<\/p>\n

Beside Scott, Donald Trump has endorsed Graham \u2013 and he traveled to South Carolina<\/a> on Friday to rally for her. The president also brushed off Graham\u2019s answer on Friday.<\/p>\n

\u201cI watched that,\u201d he said. \u201cI thought it was a very honest answer, actually.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
