President Trump Makes GOP Endorsement in Alabama's U.S. Senate Primary Race

President Trump is making his feelings known on Alabama’s Republican primary for the U.S. Senate. The Commander-in-chief is endorsing Luther Strange ahead of next week’s contentious GOP election. Trump’s support came in the form of a Tweet. Strange is in a tight race with former state chief justice Roy Moore and Congressman Mo Brooks, a member of the House Freedom Caucus. Republican contenders have openly tried to woo Trump voters in the state where he continues to enjoy heavy popularity. Civil Rights icon and Congressman John Lewis is endorsing Doug Jones in the Democratic primary race. ?
