Energy Secretary Rick Perry, who clashed with Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign, said the president does not hold a grudge.
"I've said some harsh things about the president," Perry conceded on Fox News. "He's a very forgiving man."
Asked about Republican unity, Perry, the former Texas governor, added: "I'm a big believer that our vision is the right vision for America."
At one point during the presidential campaign, Perry had called Trump's White House bid "a cancer on conservatism" conducted by "barking carnival act," The Hill reported.
