Trump mostly tries to endorse whoever he thinks will win - he wants to build a reputation as being “kingmaker”.
Every once in a while he makes an exception - as with Perdue - and endorses someone who’s campaign is in trouble to try and boost their approval.
Mostly though, the smart strategy is to pick winners - and be seen as kingmaker.
There simply were no good alternatives in Georgia.

Not sure that is a true statement. Trump has endorsed some candidates that were hardly on the radar that went on to win. He doesn’t need to build a reputation as a ‘king maker’, He is and has been a ‘king maker’. It is not just Trump that the people want! Is is his policies that are being voted for. Sometimes there are exceptions.
