Former President Donald Trump, whose 33-endorsed candidates all won in last night’s Texas races, has not endorsed in the Ohio GOP primary to select a nominee to replace retiring Republican Sen. Rob Portman.
But Timken, who was the state Republican Party chief, has a lot of evidence that Trump likes her, and she put it in the ad. It shows Trump stumping in the state key to presidential elections bragging on Timken.
“She has been incredible as a leader of the GOP. She’s the chair, and she’s my friend. Jane Timken,” said Trump in one clip. In another, he said, “she’s unbelievable.”
