Ben Carson plans to endorse Trump
Source: Washington Post
Conservative favorite Ben Carson, who last week suspended his campaign for the Republican presidential nomination, plans to endorse Donald Trump on Friday morning, according to two people familiar with his thinking.
The endorsement, perhaps the most high-profile nod for Trump since New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie backed him, was finalized Thursday morning when Carson met with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, the luxury club owned by the Republican front-runner, the people said. The sources requested anonymity to discuss private conversations.
Fridays announcement will also take place at the club in Palm Beach, Fla., where the onetime rivals will appear alongside one another at a news conference.

(482 posts)Instead he craves the spotlight just as much as Christie does. He now hitches his wagon to Trump believing that this horse will carry him into the next administration.

(2,707 posts)would he actually endorse Cruz, who stole his voters? Not to mention, Carson pandered to crazies like Trump does, just the more evangelical crazies, but still crazies. Plus, Trump will get to claim he's not racist, so Trump probably offered Carson something huge in exchange, like a lifetime supply of Trump Steaks.

Whenever we find that rare politician who is really in it to help others, we need to get behind him/her with everything we have. The rest of them are fungible sell-outs to the highest bidder (Howard Dean, I'm talking about you!)
