How it started:
How it's going:
Yeah, Trump said he supports "Eric" when there are two Republican frontrunners named "Eric in the race.
And as soon as his announcement went out, all heck broke loose as both Erics claimed the endorsement for themself:
OOF.
There's also a third Eric in the field of 19 for Senate (Eric McElroy), but he's not a frontrunner, so everyone assumes the endorsement was Attorney General Eric Schmitt or former Attorney General Eric Greitens (stop electing AG's named Eric, Missouri!).
Some pointed out that the move was likely purposeful on Trump's part:
Of course, former AG Eric Greitens resigned in 2018 following a sex scandal and his ex-wife has repeatedly accused him of abuse...
So maybe Trump should have stayed out of this one.
[Language Warning]
Good luck with the election, Missouri! May the odds be ever in "Eric's" favor!
