Republican frontrunner Donald Trump, licking his wounds from a narrow defeat to Ted Cruz in Iowa, picked up the endorsement of former Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown at a New Hampshire rally on Tuesday. The backing marks Trump’s first endorsement by a current or former senator. It provides additional evidence that some in the Republican establishment are beginning to warm to a potential candidacy.
