In front of thousands of Donald Trump supporters, Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions announced his endorsement of the Republican frontrunner Sunday during a rally in Madison, Alabama.
"At this time in American history, we need to make America great again," he said. "I am pleased to endorse Donald Trump for president of the United States." Sessions is the first sitting senator to support Trump, and has advised him on immigration reform. Sessions also told the crowd that a "movement is afoot that must not fade away," and voters need to remember they are "the bosses," and the people in Washington are "public servants. They serve you and we haven't had enough of that."
