RUSH EXCERPT:
KRAUSHAAR: "Trump didn't just endorse Johnson but when you saw those three Republican holdouts, there was an additional six Republicans who decided not to vote initially on the first round of balloting, and Donald Trump got on the phone and actually reminded Ralph Norman, the congressman we just saw, that he endorsed Nikki Haley in the Republican primary and Norman got behind Trump pretty soon thereafter or got behind Johnson pretty soon thereafter as a result of Trump’s lobbying. It’s a reminder that a lot of these Freedom Caucus members, these Rebels, are actually in some of the most pro-Trump congressional districts. And Trump really did a very effective job getting them all on board and keeping the party unified."
