Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said in an interview published Tuesday that because he’s unmarried, the White House would have a “rotating first lady” if he were elected President.
Graham’s comments were made during an interview with the Daily Mail Online in which the 59-year-old discussed his 2016 presidential candidacy, which he’d announced on June 1.
“Well, I’ve got a sister. She could play that role if necessary,” Graham said. “I’ve got a lot of friends. We’ll have a rotating first lady.”
“I’m actually a fun guy. I’m a lot of fun to hang around with. Just ask people who know me,” Graham said. “I think I’ve got a pretty good reputation of bein’ easygoing.”
If elected, Graham would be the first bachelor President since Woodrow Wilson and would be only the third U.S. President to be sworn into office unmarried. James Buchanan and Grover Cleveland are the two other Presidents who hold this distinction, although Buchanan was the only President to have remained a bachelor.

Rotating First Lady? Without further ado…
He calls her Cindy Lou and she really wants to be FLOTUS very badly…
Rotating on his index finger?
Yeah, this will go over real well with the religious conservatives. Oh wait, it’s a Republican saying it, so they don’t care.
Have to say, does Graham really think he’d be the first president with a number of women rotating through the White House bedroom?
And props to Lindsey Graham for addressing the thorny bachelor issue clearly, directly and in the creepiest way possible.
He has as much chance of being President as I do and I’d NEVER take the job.
