Trump Teases Kingmaker Endorsement in Texas Senate Primary to Force Candidate Out of Runoff

President Donald Trump has hinted at potentially endorsing a candidate in the upcoming Republican Senate primary runoff in Texas, citing it as an opportunity to 'force' another contender out of the race and claiming he will make his decision soon. The endorsement could significantly impact the election, which is seen as a key test of the Republican Party's ability to compete against Democrats. Trump's announcement has heightened speculation about who might benefit from his backing in this crucial state. A Trump endorsement would be a significant boost for either longtime Sen. John Cornyn or state Attorney General Ken Paxton.
