Conservative favorite Ben Carson, who last week suspended his campaign for the Republican presidential nomination, plans to endorse Donald Trump on Friday morning, according to two people familiar with his thinking.

The endorsement, perhaps the most high-profile nod for Trump since New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie backed him, was finalized Thursday morning when Carson met with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, the luxury club owned by the Republican front-runner, the people said. The sources requested anonymity to discuss private conversations.

Friday’s announcement will also take place at the club in Palm Beach, Fla., where the onetime rivals will appear alongside one another at a news conference.

1. Tee Hee...

[redwitch]

3. LOL!

It is funny! Was he sleep endorsing?

[monicaangela]

2. Okay, did he say this before or after his nap?

[indivisibleman]

4. Proof that Carson is not the principled person that his supporters believe he is.

Instead he craves the spotlight just as much as Christie does. He now hitches his wagon to Trump believing that this horse will carry him into the next administration.

5. Oh, boy! What fun. Maybe he'll be veep candidate, too.

Might get a yoooge TRUMP sign on the grain silos.

25. IN the debate tonight, trump hinted he would be secretsry of education

[elljay]

26. I was expecting Surgeon General

Kudos to you for listening to the Republican Debate so people like me can keep what is left of our sanity!

[Person 2713]

29. Yes but surgeon General would make sense ....so no

We watch it in the background while doing something else . Last night it appeared in consideration for his appointment he pulled out his script pad before the debate .
Medicated insane candidates?

[elljay]

30. Either him or us

If Trump is elected and Carson becomes Secy of Education, I think we will the medicated insane ones. Can you just imagine schools being ordered to teach that the Earth is 6000 years old? It is enough to make all the dinosaurs jump off Noah's Ark!

[Person 2713]

31. He may needs meds now. We just pushed the circus out of town here in Chicago before

they could even put up the tent. Chicago ? He must be on drugs!

32. Good Work Chicago!

Gotta keep the pressure on the fascists before things get out of control.

[dembotoz]

6. ah yes those fundy family values

sin seems not to apply if you have a yuuuuuuuuge bank roll

[rpannier]

7. So Trump is now part of the salad?

[tomm2thumbs]

10. we should judge people by their word salad

not their fruit salad

(unless Trump is now selling fruit salad)

[Gregorian]

12. He'll endorse him by handing over a bouquet and fruit salad obv.

[DebbieCDC]

8. "according to two people familiar with his thinking"

Maybe he can be Fuhrer Drumpf's surgeon general

[ericson00]

9. not a surprise.

would he actually endorse Cruz, who stole his voters? Not to mention, Carson pandered to crazies like Trump does, just the more evangelical crazies, but still crazies. Plus, Trump will get to claim he's not racist, so Trump probably offered Carson something huge in exchange, like a lifetime supply of Trump Steaks.

11. Hoping to become surgeon general?

[Cavallo]

17. Oh, let us hope not!

Now you're making me consider voting for Hillary if I have to.

[DesertRat]

19. ...

[Cavallo]

23. oh, I will if I have to. Fascist trump will make a whole lot of us non Hillary supporters come over

to her.

[Gore1FL]

20. He might actually be competent at that position.

But I'd rather not give him the chance.

[elmac]

13. This is got the makings of a great SNL skit

Having Christie & Carson fighting over der fuhrer.

[Kelvin Mace]

14. There is not enough money in the world

to make me endorse Trump.

[elljay]

33. And that is the difference

between your average politician and a regular moral person. Whenever we find that rare politician who is really in it to help others, we need to get behind him/her with everything we have. The rest of them are fungible sell-outs to the highest bidder (Howard Dean, I'm talking about you!)

[Enrique]

15. trump can say, how can I be racist?

if Ben Carson supports me?

[elljay]

34. He now has his one black friend!

Pretty sure that's all it takes, right?

[Cavallo]

16. A black man endorsing a fascist.

?

[navarth]

21. you couldn't write this shit

truth stranger than fiction

[TeamPooka]

18. Dr. Vice-President. I think he wants it. nt

[houston16revival]

22. Hope he looks under the hair

to see what Trump is hiding

[davidpdx]

27. Whatever it is it died along time ago.

[truthisfreedom]

24. And they'll be lost in the hallway together forever.

Never quite making it to the actual stage.

[Frank Cannon]

28. Even Carson, a religious crazy, is afraid of Ted Cruz.

That makes Ted Cruz the religious crazy's religious crazy.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

35. If Carson endorses Trump, does Trump get all of Carson's delegates?

I mean, if ...
