The former president’s decision to endorse “Eric” for a race with two as the main contenders has plunged Trumpworld into open chaos.
The trouble began Monday night when Donald Trump tossed his political weight behind “Eric” meaning two Missouri Senate Republican candidates, Eric Greitens and Eric Schmitt, could legitimately claim to have his blessing.
(Rep. Vicky Hartzler, the one candidate in the race Trump explicitly said he would not endorse, congratulated the third little-known “Eric” on the ballot, Eric McElroy, in a tongue-in-cheek statement.)
