Trump endorses Mike Rogers in GOP primary for Michigan Senate seat - Washington Examiner

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

66% : "Mike has served his Country during a career loaded up with accolades and wins, from the Army to Congress, and now, hopefully, the U.S. Senate," Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.
59% : Trump opted to back Rogers, whom he called "highly respected," over businessman Sandy Pensler, who has the support of former 2024 GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy.
58% : Despite those attributes, Meijer faces an uphill climb in winning Michigan's GOP primary, where the state GOP has fully embraced Trump since his 2016 win and remained loyal despite 2020 and 2022 losses.
55% : Still, a Democratic Party victory is no guarantee for the vacant seat in Michigan, a state won by Trump in 2016 before going to President Joe Biden in 2020.
45% : Rogers and Amash do not have that same self-funding ability, and will need endorsements like Trump's to finish this primary race in first place.
34% : Amash retired from the House in 2021 after disavowing Trump and leaving the GOP, becoming an independent and later a libertarian.
19% : He is also facing former Rep. Peter Meijer, who lost his 2022 House primary to a challenger backed by Trump.
