Topeka -- Gov. Sam Brownback of Kansas touted his welfare reforms at a statehouse news conference Thursday, a day after Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders took a political swipe at the Republican.
In a wide-ranging exchange with the news media, Brownback said he will vote for Donald Trump if the real estate mogul wins the Republican nomination.
“I’ll support the Republican nominee over Bernie Sanders or Hillary Clinton,” said Brownback, who has backed Sen. Marco Rubio for the nomination.
Sanders on Wednesday called out Brownback at a Bartle Hall rally that drew thousands.
