Former President Donald Trump is facing a conservative backlash over some of his recent endorsements, according to a new report.The GOP primary for Virginia's Fifth Congressional District is among the most high-profile contests in this election cycle, pitting Representative Bob Good against state Senator John McGuire.
The former president's endorsement has proved powerful in past primaries, as he remains popular with the conservative voters who make up the electorate.In recent election cycles, Republicans who have been critical of Trump, such as former Representative Liz Cheney, have been replaced with Trump-endorsed loyalists, with the former president campaigning for candidates who closely align with his brand of politics. Newsweek has contacted the Trump campaign for comment via email.
