Fox News

Tennessee Senator Marsha Blackburn on Monday endorsed Donald Trump for president, adding to the growing list of elected Republican officials endorsing the former president.

“Under President Trump, our economy was booming, gas prices were low, and inflation was under control. Our order was secure, our adversaries feared us, & our military was strong,” Sen. Blackburn, R-Tenn., said in a Monday tweet.

“I am proud to endorse Donald Trump for President and can’t wait until he’s back in the White House,” she said.

TRUMP WORLD IS LOSING KEY PLAYERS TO DESANTIS AS MENTOR AND PROTEGE CLASH AHEAD OF GOP PRIMARY

Blackburn’s announcement follows Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., who announced his support for Trump earlier this month making him the third Republican from Florida to early endorse Trump. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has been long-rumored to be considering entering the race, and who polls indicate is Trump’s most formidable contender.

Senate Judiciary Ranking Member Lindsey Graham, R-S.C. is another Republican who has shown early support for the former president.
