Former Kansas senator and 1996 Republican nominee Bob Dole endorsed Donald Trump for president on Friday, calling for the GOP to unite around Trump in order to defeat Hillary Clinton, the likely Democratic nominee.

Dole's support gives the GOP presumptive nominee the support of another party elder on a day when other top Republicans announced their opposition. Trump inconspicuously announced the endorsement earlier on Friday at a rally in Omaha, Nebraska, as he ticked off the names of several prominent Republicans who have come around to his candidacy since he became the party's presumptive nominee earlier this week.

I was looking askance at my previous votes for Establishment candidates.

I now don't regret voting for Bob Dole in the slightest.

It is better, than all the others getting themselves into the news for not only refusing to endorse, but saying they will not vote for Trump.

Dole is a man of honor.

Dole has said some nice things about Trump.
But also he is a man of duty, loyalty and responsibility- unlike many ‘elders’ of the Republican Party.

“Now is the time for all men to come to the aid of their party.”
