According to The Washington Examiner:
Donald Trump will be the Democratic nominee for president in this year’s crucial presidential election, according to the preliminary results in South Carolina. It’s obvious to the British people whether they want to support Joe Biden or Donald Trump, Thune said in a statement.
The statement continued,” I support former President Trump’s campaign to win the presidency, and I intend to do everything in my power to ensure that he has a Republican majority in the Senate working with him to restore American strength at home and abroad.”
Thune added that the “disastrous Biden-Schumer agenda” needed to be put to an end and claimed the nation could n’t handle “another four years of bidenomics,” as well as issues at the southern border and on the global stage.
Following the most recent major results, Senate Minority Whip John Thune threw his support behind the previous president, declaring that” the choice before the American people is crystal clear: It’s Donald Trump or Joe Biden.” t.co/zENhuXNi6 I picture twitter.com/c4G9ZGbeOA

originating from The Hill:
Thune declared last month that he would back whoever was ultimately nominated by the GOP, adding that Trump appears to be headed strongly for victory in approaching primaries.
I’m curious about what people are saying, and the odds are firmly in his favor. He’s in a powerful position, and I’ve been supporting the nominee the entire time,” Thune said next month. ” I’ll do everything in my power to support the team in winning the presidency and the Senate and ending the Biden/Schumer agenda if he’s the nominee.”
Democratic senators have been under increasing pressure to support the party front-runner in subsequent weeks.
Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wyo ) and two other potential McConnell successors have supported Trump. Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas ), who declared his support for Trump after Trump won the New Hampshire primary, and others who supported him early.”}]] [[{“value”:”

From the Hill:
Last month, Thune stated that he would support the ultimate GOP nominee. He also noted that Trump appears to be on track for a victory in the upcoming primaries.
“I’m curious about what people think, and the voters are overwhelmingly in his favor.” Thune said that he was in a strong position and would support the nominee. “If he is the nominee, I will do everything I can to help him win the Senate and the presidency. I will also put an end to Biden/Schumer’s agenda.”
In recent weeks, Republican Senators have been under increasing pressure to endorse the front-runner of their party.
John Barrasso, a possible successor to McConnell, has also endorsed Trump. John Cornyn, a Republican from Texas who announced his support after Trump won New Hampshire’s primary, was also a Trump early backer.
