While noting that Trump was not his first choice for president, he said Florida Republicans spoke loud and clear in giving Trump a decisive primary victory.

"The bottom line is the people selected him, it's a democracy," Buchanan said, adding "I'm going to support their wishes."

Buchanan also talks about his support for President Barack Obama's request to dedicate $1.9 billion for combating the Zika virus, a proposal that has met some resistance among Republican leaders in Congress, and a range of other issues. Check it out.
