Former President Donald Trump has endorsed Tudor Dixon in Michigan's Republican primary for governor, just days before the election that will determine the party's opponent for Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. Dixon is a conservative commentator and actress.
"We need to be friendly to the job creators and make sure that they feel that they have a friend in the government in Michigan, and that's not happening right now," Dixon said.
Some Republicans had urged the former president not to endorse Dixon because of her support from Betsy DeVos, who resigned from Trump's Cabinet after the Jan. 6 riot.
Former President Donald Trump endorsed the Norton Shores Republican late Friday, calling Dixon a ‘pro-God, pro-Gun, and pro-Freedom’ candidate who can defeat Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer this fall.
