I think so...once he said something about her, the people woke up and now she’s gone...smart thinking!!!
She endorsed him in the NC primaries so I think he was just returning the favor.
LOL
No, it’s loyalty. She was the first major elected Republican to endorse him. I can’t fault that.
Really?
I thought he might have endorsed her because she is a woman.
Now he has put in his time for the woman vote.
Good riddance to Mrs Elmer Fudd!
Didn’t watch returns. So Ellmers was primaried?
That’s right! He can do nothing wrong, even when he is wrong he is right! He only endorsed this candidate that was in complete opposition to his positions because he wanted her to lose!
Turnout was low. Despite the big media buys, it was a nearly invisible primary, following sweeping and unnecessary changes in the district, posting a three-way contest between two still fresh incumbents and an under-funded (but semi-credible challenger) over a lot of new territory.
I'll bet Holding's donors spent a record-breaking price for each vote, and Elmers built up a considerable amount of ill-will since beating a particularly nasty old guard liberal and establishment Democrat a few years back, since then pissing off her base on illegal immigration, clearly placing the Chambers of Communists along the Potomac ahead of the folks back home.
She probably begged Trump to endorse her, and he had political coin to spare. It won't hurt him.
Still, the low turnout was the biggest factor, and the reasons for that had nothing to do with Trump and everything to do with judge shopping by NC Democrats and a judiciary, in this case, with no respect for the letter of the law or for the convenience of voters.
