“After months of public and private drama, it’s now official – President Donald Trump won’t endorse Sen. John Cornyn’s (R-TX) reelection bid, a serious blow to the veteran Republican’s campaign,” Punchbowl News reports.
“Senate Majority Leader John Thune, who’s been pushing Trump and top White House officials to back Cornyn for several months, said Thursday that the president wouldn’t be endorsing in the race.”
Said Thune: “We’ve tried. And the president obviously is not, at this point at least, willing to make an endorsement there. So maybe at some point that changes. But as of right now, they’re gonna, I think, duke it out in the primary.”
