Both Trump, who’s the commanding front-runner in the GOP nomination race, and former U.N. ambassador and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley called the senator in recent days as they both tried to secure Scott’s endorsement, sources confirm.
Scott, the only Black Republican in the U.S. Senate, mostly avoided criticizing Trump during his presidential campaign.
