'''Trump endorsements''' is a growing list of candidates Trump endorsed for election, how they did, and why:
Trump-endorsed Susan Wright, Texas congressional candidate, initially won the primary but then lost 53-47% in the runoff as Democrats likely voted for her opponentJake Ellzey. The run-off was not a true primary in which Democrats would ordinarily not vote on the Republican side. [[Rick Perry]] said that Trump had been “sold a bill of goods” to support Wright rather than Jake Ellzey.<ref>https://www.gazettetimes.com/news/local/carl-p-leubsdorf-the-candidate-trump-endorsed-in-a-texas-race-lost-what-does-that/article_5422217e-8b8e-500c-a02e-36897e3628e6.html</ref> Early voting -- which is worse in Texas than most states -- decided this race, and the state representative Ellzey seemed to play that distorting game better in squeaking out a victory.<ref>https://www.texastribune.org/2021/07/21/jake-ellzey-susan-wright-texas-congressional-6/</ref>
