Mitch McConnell endorses Donald Trump for president

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell endorsed Donald Trump's bid to return to the White House on Wednesday after a dominant Super Tuesday performance by the former president.

“It is abundantly clear that former President Trump has earned the requisite support of Republican voters to be our nominee for President of the United States. It should come as no surprise that, as nominee, he will have my support," said McConnell, R-Ky.

McConnell was the highest-profile Republican who had yet to endorse Trump. Asked repeatedly whether he would back Trump in recent months, McConnell demurred, telling reporters he would back the party's eventual nominee.

McConnell issued his endorsement shortly after former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley ended her campaign.

And that way he can blame any mistakes in the next four years on Biden and tell everyone not to blame him because he voted for Trump.

So many open sides to that man’s mouth, amazing he can drink a glass of water.
