Trump Endorses RNC Chair Mike Whatley in North Carolina Senate Race

Michael Whatley picked up the most prized political endorsement in America Thursday.
President Donald Trump endorsed Whatley, the Chairman of the Republican National Committee, in the Republican primary for North Carolina’s opening Senate seat. Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) opted against running for a third term after butting heads with Trump and incurring plummeting poll numbers.
Trump praised Whatley’s work as RNC Chairman, and called on North Carolinians to let him carry on his work in the U.S. Senate.
