Top Republican lawmakers and party leaders who refused to support Donald Trump in the election decided to come home after Trump surprised everyone and won the election Tuesday.
Former presidential nominee Mitt Romney, Sens. Lindsey Graham and Ben Sasse, and Rep. Justin Amash all issued statements of support or congratulations for Trump following his defeat of Democrat Hillary Clinton. They were prominent holdouts on the Trump bandwagon throughout the electoral process, but said they were moved to support Trump now that he’s headed to the Oval Office.
