Former President Donald Trump on Thursday endorsed former congressman and Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke in his run for Montana’s newly awarded U.S. House seat.

Zinke, who said he maintains a friendship with Trump, announced his run for Montana’s second House seat in May after filing paperwork to organize a campaign committee. The seat was awarded based on the state’s population growth compared to other states in the latest U.S. census results.
