Lindsey Graham’s “How to Destroy Your Phone” video is his latest attempt at winning over Republican voters. He’s not targeting all of the other candidates, or even Democrats, however.
While taking a quick jab at a popular Republican rival, Lindsey Graham gives us a taste of his sense of humor. You might be asking why the candidate is showing us ways to rid ourselves of that pesky, but ever-so-important, mobile communication device?
The rivalry has grown between Lindsey Graham and Donald Trump after the latter recently found himself on the bad side of most of the Mexican population for his rants on immigration. Trump apparently gave out Lindsey Graham’s personal cell phone number during a speech after Graham told Trump to “stop being a jacka**” on Twitter. Trump had previously slammed former presidential candidate John McCain for not being a “war hero,” but a prisoner of war , and Graham had a problem with it.
Graham isn’t the only one who thinks Trump is taking his jabs a little too far, with Rick Perry calling him a “cancer on conservatism.”
It seems Lindsey Graham fought back by showing us how to destroy your phone on YouTube.

For many of us, our cell phones are a central part of our lives, allowing us to communicate and keep in touch with our friends and family. Some of us might see it as more of an annoyance, especially if someone with a taste for revenge gives the number away publicly and we suddenly start getting unwanted calls from strangers.
The variety of ways that Graham destroyed a number of phones included using a meat cleaver, hitting it with a golf club, and putting it in a high-powered blender. Other methods include whacking it with a sparring katana, lighting it on fire, cooking it in a toaster oven, dropping it from a rooftop, and dropping a brick on it.
By the end of the video, Lindsey Graham reveals one more method of how to destroy your phone, “[If] all else fails, you can always give your number to the Donald.”
