Donald Trump Set To Endorse Mitt Romney In Las Vegas - ABC News
ABC News’ Michael Falcone reports:
Donald Trump will endorse Mitt Romney in Las Vegas on Thursday, sources familiar with the decision tell ABC News.
A political aide in Trump’s office spoke directly with Mitt Romney by phone last night before Trump’s private plane took off from New York City to Las Vegas, according to a source familiar with the discussion.
The call was to inform Romney of Thursday endorsement, which will take place at a 12:30 p.m. event at the Trump International Hotel on the Las Vegas strip.
A contracting company used by the Romney campaign has been setting up for the event since last night.
Sources familiar with Trump’s say that earlier reports of a Gingrich endorsement were inaccurate.
