Eric Cantor Endorses Bush
Former House Majority Leader Eric Cantor is endorsing Jeb Bush for president Thursday evening, according to reports.
This gives the Bush camp a backer with strong ties to the business community who may be able to marshall significant cash and corporate support for the former Florida governor.
Cantor will be a Virginia state co-chair of the campaign, according to Politico, which first reported the story. Cantor is scheduled to appear with Bush at a Thursday evening fundraiser in Richmond and then campaign with him in Norfolk on Friday.
Cantor, who like Bush is a card-carrying member of the Republican establishment, was unexpectedly trounced in the 2014 GOP primary by conservative David Brat, who went on to win Cantor’s seat in the general election.
