Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.), the chairman of the Senate Republican campaign arm, says that he will support Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) in her reelection efforts, even as former President Donald Trump has endorsed her challenger, Kelly Tshibaka, in the 2022 Alaska Senate race.

Speaking on NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Nov. 7 with host Chuck Todd, Scott said the committee is backing all incumbent senators.
