Labrador stumps for Trump around USA

Idaho GOP Congressman Raul Labrador is criss-crossing the country stumping for Donald Trump, speaking at Trump rallies so far in Florida, Arizona and Utah.

Labrador’s high-profile national role in the Trump campaign comes despite his lukewarm support for the GOP nominee, whom Labrador, who earlier supported Rand Paul and then Ted Cruz, has said “wasn’t even in my top 16.”

After meeting Trump along with other House and Senate Republicans in July, Labrador said, “I’m not a huge fan.” In mid-October Labrador told the Idaho Statesman, “I had to choose between two what I consider to be not very good choices.” But Labrador also issued a written statement, saying, “Right now Hillary Clinton is a greater threat to our national well-being than Donald Trump.”

On Wednesday in Miami, Labrador was an introductory speaker for Trump, and spoke for three and a half minutes, according to the Washington Post/ Betsy Russell , Eye on Boise. More here .

Question: Initially, Labrador was lukewarm toward Trump. Why do you think he’s so enthusiastic now?
