When it comes to former President Donald Trump, he might not be liked by the Biden administration or the Democrats, but in the GOP, his endorsement almost comes with a guarantee. Even though the FBI raided his Mar-a-Lago residence on Monday, his endorsement record currently sits at 192-11. And with Tuesday full of statewide and federal races, it appears that Trump continues to use his political power to help propel the GOP.

Taking a look in Wisconsin, former U.S. Army ranger, Tim Michels, who served for 12 years, defeated his opponent, Rebecca Kleefisch, during the Republican gubernatorial race. Back in June, Donald Trump threw his support behind Michels, stating, “Wisconsin needs a Governor who will Stop Inflation, Uphold the Rule of Law, strengthen our Borders (we had the strongest borders in history just two years ago, now we have the weakest!) and End the well-documented Fraud in our Elections.” He added, “Tim Michels is the best candidate to deliver meaningful solutions to these problems, and he will produce jobs like no one else can even imagine.”
In Connecticut, Donald Trump proved his endorsement power by supporting Leora Levy in the GOP U.S. Senate primary. Running against Themis Klarides and Peter Lumaj, Levy only recently received support from the former President last Thursday. Trump said, “Leora Levy is running to represent the Great State of Connecticut in the United States Senate. The current Senator is a mocked and laughed at fool, who said for many years that he was a brave war hero in Vietnam when the facts later revealed that he had never even been to Vietnam.”
Trump didn’t stop there as he continued to praise Levy, who is a member of the national Republican committeewoman for Connecticut. “In the Senate, she will work hard to Grow the Economy, Secure the Border, Fight for Energy Independence, Support our Military and our Vets, champion Election Integrity, Protect the Second Amendment, and Fight Violent and Vicious Crime, which is at the highest level in Connecticut history.”
Traveling over to Minnesota, all three candidates backed by Donald Trump took home wins. They included:
- Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN) – GOP nominee for the Sixth Congressional District
- Rep. Michelle Fischbach (R-MN) – GOP nominee for the Seventh Congressional District
- Rep. Pete Stauber (R-MN): GOP nominee for the Eighth Congressional District
The ongoing victories for Trump and those who he endorses is flawless in a staggering 31 states:
