Scott Brown expected to endorse Donald Trump


Former Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) is expected to endorse Donald Trump at a New Hampshire rally Tuesday night, two unnamed sources told The Washington Post.
After being defeated by Elizabeth Warren (D) in the 2012 election, Brown ran an unsuccessful 2014 Senate bid from New Hampshire — the nation's second presidential voting state.
Scott would be the first current or former U.S. senator to formally endorse Trump.
