Top Republicans also say that with the majority hanging in the balance, there is little desire to see Walker face the kind of brutal primary that has damaged past GOP nominees. And they were heartened by his decision to break with Trump over a position the former president has taken that’s alarmed party brass: That Republicans will sit out the 2022 and 2024 elections if voter fraud isn’t addressed.

“That is not the right the message. Everyone has to get out and vote and we can’t look at the past,” Walker said in a recent appearance on Fox News radio.

Graham, who played a key role in helping Walker launch his candidacy, said he had spoken with Thune about the former running back prior to his endorsement.

“I think John sees in Herschel a guy that can win in a state we can’t afford to lose,” Graham said. “if we want to take back the Senate majority.”
