- President Donald Trump contradicted preliminary medical findings regarding the death of Senator Lindsey Graham, stating his death was due to "a totally different thing" unrelated to blocked arteries.

- Trump claimed White House doctors explained Graham's death was from an "almost undetectable" condition, similar to what killed Graham's father, and not due to arterial blockage.
