13. When was the last time a Trump endorsement helped anybody win?

It has been a long time. Much closer to the kiss of death than anything helpful.

Obviously Stefanek was forced out by Trump, The GOP has a serious electoral problem. Trump is a boat anchors in the general elections. But he can still be king-maker in the primaries. Every time Trump endorses somebody, it is good for our chances.

But it does raise the question of what Stefanek did to get this treatment from Trump. She sold any soul she might have had to Trump, and even that wasn't enough. Any intelligent Republican will take note of the dangers of getting too close to Trump, especially at this stage of his mental illness.
