A prominent US senator just threw his support to Donald Trump

• Business Insider

Trump announced the endorsement alongside Sessions at a massive campaign rally in Madison, Alabama.

"At this time in America's history, we need to make America great again!" Sessions said, echoing Trump's campaign slogan. "I am pleased to endorse Donald Trump for the presidency of the United States."

Sessions, known for his hard-line stance against illegal immigration, is popular in some conservative circles.

Trump's presidential rival Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas has frequently invoked Sessions to defend his record on immigration. On Sunday, Drudge Report founder Matt Drudge called Sessions the "conservative soul" of the US Senate.

Several other notable politicians have also recently thrown their support to Trump, though another GOP candidate, Marco Rubio, has grabbed the lion's share of recent endorsements from elected officials.
