Republican Presidential frontrunner Donald Trump is starting to collect endorsements from across the political landscape leading up to Super Tuesday, March 1.
Just last week, Trump snagged the endorsements of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions, former Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer... oh yeah – and former Ku Klux Klan grand wizard David Duke, who recently told his radio audience that “voting against Donald Trump at this point, is really treason to your heritage.”
Over the weekend, CNN’s Jake Tapper pressed Trump over the endorsement, and when Trump refused to disavow support from the former KKK leader, Trump and Tapper’s interview was already well on its way to being divvied up into attack ads.
The pro-Rubio Conservative Solutions PAC quickly got the Florida senator’s back with this ad. The PAC offers Republicans “A better way,” to “make America great again:” by resurrecting the Reagan Revolution with Marco Rubio as its natural heir.
But, unfortunately for the “children of the Reagan Revolution,” it may be too little too late. Trump continues to lead in most of the states voting in Super Tuesday, including Rubio’s home state of Florida, where, by some estimates, he is ahead by 20 points.

Marco Rubio Tries to Be the Voice of Reaganite Reason
Marco Rubio hit Trump immediately, saying that “There is no room in the conservative movement and there is no room in the Republican Party for members of the Ku Klux Klan or racists like David Duke,” and that failure to condemn the group and its ideology made Trump “unelectable.”The pro-Rubio Conservative Solutions PAC quickly got the Florida senator’s back with this ad.
