* Willie Robertson threw his support behind the GOP frontrunner during an event in Las Vegas Thursday
Trump said he was 'truly honored' to accept endorsement of the A&E reality TV star
* Willie's father, Phil Robertson, backed Senator Ted Cruz, starring in a video with him last week
In his speech Thursday, Willie took a jab at his dad, saying 'he had to cruise on back to Louisiana'
A week earlier, Robertson's father, Phil, threw his support behind Trump's chief rival, Senator Ted Cruz, from Texas.
The Cruz campaign released a video that shows the outspoken Robertson patriarch describing what he is looking for in a president, and then explaining why Cruz has all those attributes.
The 69-year-old founder of the Duck Commander brand agreed to back Cruz's candidacy for the White House after the two went on a hunting trip together.
'My qualifications for president of the United States are rather narrow: Is he or she Godly, does he or she love us, can he or she do the job, and finally would they kill a duck and put him in a pot and make him a good duck gumbo?' asks Robertson at the beginning of the endorsement video.
He then goes on to say that Cruz is the only person running for president 'that fits the bill.'
