On Thursday, Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) officially endorsed leading Republican presidential candidate and 45th President Donald Trump for the Republican nomination, encouraging the GOP to come together behind one candidate to take on President Joe Biden and the Democrat Party next year.
Scott outlined his endorsement in an op-ed in Newsweek that began with a lambasting of Biden's agenda both domestically and abroad as well as a harkening back to Ronald Reagan's 1980 "morning in America' campaign.
He went on to explain that he is optimistic that America can return to become the "undisputed moral leader of the free world" and that President Trump is the right man to lead the country to greatness.
"It's time for the Republican Party to come together, behind one candidate, and declare with one voice that we are united in our efforts to defeat Joe Biden and rescue America," he wrote.
"I know most of the candidates running for president, and I respect their decision to put themselves through this very difficult process," Scott explained. "They've made their case to voters, laid out their agendas and their plans, and told their stories. Make no mistake: every single one of them would be a better president than Joe Biden."
"But Republican voters are making their voices heard loud and clear. They want to return to the leadership of Donald Trump," he added.
"President Trump will be our nominee because America was safer and more prosperous when he led our nation," the Florida Republican explained, adding, "Our economy was booming, and we were achieving energy independence. He took on Communist China and stood up to dictators in Latin America. He did more for Israel than any other president in our history, bringing stability and peace in the Middle East through the Abraham Accords, while Joe Biden is undoing all the work his administration accomplished."
Following Scott's endorsement, Trump took to Truth Social to thank the top Sunshine State Republican, writing, "A great honor to have received such a powerful Endorsement from Senator Rick Scott of Florida. Rick is tough and smart, and he knows what America needs, especially in these troubled (By Biden!) times. Thank you, Rick!"

Thanks, but no. Maybe one single voter can cast a ballot first. We don’t anoint kin’s in this country.
Sour grapes are sour!
Meatball wants more money to stuff in his pockets before he disappears already
He discounted his T-shirts for last minute suckers
The leader of Ron’s Gate Cult is going nowhere but the next spaceship hiding behind a comet.
They will beg DeSantis to stay in the race later after Trump calls them names also
Rumper is begging for money everyday to pay his legal fees, might as well not use his own, just his supporters
And most importantly, these other Republican candidates must loudly condemn the following:
1) The outrageous political persecution of the presumed Republican nominee by a corrupt DOJ, and the protection of the Biden crime family by the same.
2) The brazen stealing of the 2020 presidential election from Republican voters.
3) The cruel injustice being perpetrated against innocent Republican voters, who were legally protesting a stolen election on January 6, 2021.
4) The constant gaslighting of the American people by a corrupt media entirely monopolized by the Democrat party.
If Republican leaders can’t bring themselves to publicly express outrage over these injustices, they have no business calling themselves Republicans.
With the world falling apart, the economy tanking, and America in steady decline...
