Former Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown, whose name has been floated as a possible pick to lead the Department of Veterans Affairs for President-elect Donald Trump, can count on the support of his former rival, Sen. Elizabeth Warren.
Warren (D-Mass.) said Thursday in an interview on Boston public radio station WGBH that she would endorse Brown, the man whom she unseated from the Senate in 2012 after a nasty campaign, if Trump were to pick him to lead the VA.
“If Scott Brown is the nominee for Veterans Affairs, I have no doubt that he would put his heart and soul into trying to help veterans,” Warren said in her interview, which was reported by The Boston Globe. “And I would put my heart and soul into trying to help him do that. You bet I’d support him for that.”
Brown, who served in the National Guard for more than 30 years, confirmed last week that Trump was considering him to lead Veterans Affairs. After meeting with Trump, Brown told reporters that he had expressed interest in the job because serving veterans and veterans’ issues is a “passion” for him. He added that “the toughest job in the Cabinet is to lead the VA, because while it has so many angels working there, it has so many great problems as well.”
