Bob Dole also said Newt Gingrich would be a good VP choice.

In an interview with CNN’s Ana Cabrera, Dole — the 1996 Republican nominee who said he spoke with Trump last week — also suggested Trump apologize to Arizona Sen. John McCain and New Mexico Gov. Susanna Martinez for disparaging comments he’s made about them in the past.

“I have been a Republican all my life,” said Dole, who endorsed former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush at one point during the 2016 primary fight but has since backed Trump. “The party has done a lot for me. I hope I’ve done a lot for the party along the way. But when Donald Trump clinched the Republican nomination, it was an easy call for me. What’s a lifelong Republican supposed to do, support the opponent? I don’t think so.”

Asked about notable Republicans who haven’t yet supported Trump — including Bush and House Speaker Paul Ryan — Dole said, “Well, they still have time to get on the train. It’s not moving that fast right now.”

    Time to fall in line with Tramp?
    Yeah, of course, fall all the way down the cliff for the GOP and he can apologize on the way down.

    Some guys just can’t help but come out of the woodwork every few years to remind us how big of a demagogue and right wing fanatic they really are. They just can’t stand the thought of someone getting more attention than they ever got.
