Ricks establishment so of course he’ll back Trump......he didn’t stand on the Trump stage for nothing.....Huck will also because he’s still upset with Cruz for taking the votes he thought he had cornered....
Both Huck and Rick want to retain some degree of “face time” to continue enjoying their lifestyles.
If he’s establishment (which I agree he is), he’s go Rubio.
Huckabee and Santorum were on that stage with Trump because their debate was over and they wanted to support veterans. Santorum was the most conservative candidate in the field, not Cruz. He’s also a devout Christian, who doesn’t compromise his principles for a vote, Cruz does. Santorum would make a great VP pick for anyone. No OJT needed.
Santorum will endorse Trump or possibly Christie. Trump brings the most $$$ - not suggesting payoff, but rather business contacts - Rick is an attorney. Plus potential cabinet position.
It’s high risk, high reward for Santorum.
True heresy from Rick re the unborn, though, b/c Trump is not pro-life. Let’s face facts.
I believe you are correct.
Santorum and Huckabee both won Iowa Caucuses with big time support from Evangelicals. No matter who these former candidates endorse, I believe their voters will migrate to Cruz.
