FRANKFORT, Ky. (WKYT) - After a heated few days in the race for Kentucky attorney general, President Donald Trump is now weighing in to back the Republican candidate.
"The Republican Party has a new STAR, his name is Daniel Cameron," Trump tweeted Monday afternoon.
Cameron, who is the former attorney for Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, won the Republican nomination with 55 percent of the vote.
President Trump also tweeted that he supports Cameron's positions on crime, borders and gun rights when endorsing him.
Cameron is in a heated battle with Democratic nominee Greg Stumbo, who is the state's former attorney general. The two have had a war of words after a Cameron campaign ad attacked Stumbo's past, going as far as calling him a "deadbeat dad."
“My political opponents have been making outrageous charges against me for years,” Stumbo told our news partners at the Lexington Herald-Leader. “I challenge Daniel Cameron to prove them. None of these things he is talking about are true in total. I challenge him to prove them.”
Cameron is looking to be the first Republican to be elected Kentucky attorney general since Eldon S. Dummit was elected in 1944.

Cameron from Kentucky? Is he related to Hawkeye?
Eldon S. Dummit? If he was alive today he’d be trending on Internet searches just for his name.
“None of these things he is talking about are true in total.”

Oh, so if they are not true “in total,” are you admitting that they’re *mostly* true, Mr. Stumbo?
I hope that Mr. Cameron kicks his ass ank KY Republicans win a clean sweep.
Hard to come up with an adequate description for Stumbo. I hope he loses, but hillbilly voters love him. They seem to revel in sleezy candidates. Boss Hogg types are their models.
Decorum prevented campaign from listing more truth about Stumbo. His youngest daughter, a young adult actively trolling on her corrupt father’s behalf then falsely declared the truth to be lies and played the victim as the hurt child which Stumbo’s people and the radical leftist media actively assisting. (Sorry. You don’t get to lie about the truth from a privileged position where you can’t be called on it just because you’re his daughter when you are an adult. Politics is war.)
Decades of Stumbo corruption still has Kentucky perennially listed as the most corrupt state. Some links to blog articles on some of what was mentioned that mostly cites various news sources from over the years:

He lost his House seat as the incumbent Speaker of the House...there are video clips of him praising Obama which were heavily played in that race and he lost. The love for him soured when he was actually seriously challenged - that race and this AG race will be the only times he has been seriously challenged with anything other than token opposition.
