Former President Donald Trump has endorsed three candidates for Missouri’s gubernatorial race.
Trump endorsed Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft, Lt. Gov. Mike Kehoe, and state Sen. Bill Eigel.
“All have had excellent careers and have been with me from the beginning. They are MAGA and America First all the way!” Trump wrote in a post on his social media platform, Truth Social.
“I can’t hurt two of them by endorsing one, so therefore, I’m going to endorse, for Governor of the Great State of Missouri, Jay Ashcroft, Mike Kehoe, and Bill Eigel. Choose any one of them – you can’t go wrong!”
“Grateful for the kind words and endorsement, President Trump,” Eigel posted on X.
Kehoe said, “We’ll unite conservatives across Missouri and have a great victory in November, but we first need to win on Aug. 6.”
Ashcroft posted on social media that he was the only candidate in the race for governor who has been endorsed by both Trump and Missouri Right to Life.
