President Donald Trump endorsed a Republican congressmember to replace Sen. Mitch McConnell while rejecting a self-styled MAGA candidate with backing from Elon Musk.
Trump announced his support Friday for Rep. Andy Barr in the Kentucky Republican primary, shortly after he said he asked businessperson Nate Morris to drop out of the race and take an unspecified role in the Trump administration.
The endorsement gives Barr a massive boost to win the GOP nomination over former Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron in the deep-red state.
“I know Andy well, and he is always a Vote we can count on because he knows what it takes to GET THINGS DONE and, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” Trump said on social media.
Trump said he asked Morris to serve as an ambassador but did not specify the exact diplomatic post, while praising him as a “strong MAGA Warrior.”
“Nate is Oxford educated, tough as nails, LOVES our Great Nation, and will represent the United States very well, overseas, or otherwise,” Trump said.
Morris endorsed Barr in a social media post, and called on “all Kentuckians to rally behind our next Senator.”
Morris has self-financed his campaign to stay financially competitive with Barr. But he did receive a significant investment from Elon Musk, who dropped $10 million into his campaign, according to federal campaign finance records from earlier this year.
The primary had been defined by Barr, Cameron and Morris seeking to distance themselves from McConnell, the lion of the Kentucky GOP who has grown into a Trump adversary and condemned the president for the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol.
That maneuvering away from McConnell speaks to the power of Trump’s endorsement in the state, Kentucky Republican strategist Tres Watson said. He noted that Cameron will be familiar with the gift Trump has given Barr — Cameron won the GOP primary for governor in 2023 after getting Trump’s backing.
“It’s all over but the shouting,” Watson said. “Donald Trump’s endorsement effectively ends this campaign and Andy Barr can begin to turn his attention to the general election.”
Barr’s allies celebrated Trump’s endorsement. Former Kentucky Senate Majority Leader Damon Thayer said it shows that Barr has run a “perfect race” thus far.
“I’m pleased that President Trump has endorsed Andy Barr,” Thayer said. “He likes to support winners and it’s been clear right from the start that Andy has what it takes to win the primary and the general and hold the seat for Republicans.”

Blake Gettys, a retired U.S. Air Force brigadier general, will run for lieutenant governor alongside Republican gubernatorial candidate Shelley Hughes, the duo announced Thursday in Anchorage.
Incumbent Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy, a Republican, is term-limited after serving from 2018 to 2026. Hughes is one of 18 candidates for Alaska governor.
Blake Gettys, 60, of Eagle River, grew up in Ohio and has lived in Alaska since 1994. He retired from the Air Force in August 2018 as a brigadier general. He most recently was the director of Kids Outdoor Zone, a Christian youth ministry of Alliance Christian Fellowship Church in Eagle River, and a commercial airline pilot.
Gettys attended the Air Force Academy where he played football. He was the director of joint staff for the Joint Force Headquarters at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson and commanded the 176th Wing, Alaska Air National Guard, at JBER.
At a campaign event in Anchorage Thursday, Gettys said that he believes deeply in Hughes’ mission and he is grateful for the opportunity to serve Alaska. Gettys is a registered Republican.
“The state gave me opportunities to learn, to lead, to serve and to solve problems that mattered. It gave me purpose. The state helped shape me into the man of faith I am today,” he said Thursday. “If elected I promise to serve Alaska with humility, discipline, gratitude and integrity. That’s the least I can do for a state that has given me so much.”
As lieutenant governor, Gettys said that he would ensure the integrity of Alaska’s elections, oversee a government automation and modernization program, advocate for the return of federal lands to the state and eliminate redundancy and waste.
Hughes said Thursday that Gettys has “integrity and character.”
“When you have a solid foundation you can raise up strong leaders, but it can go the other way. Sometimes we need strong leaders to help rebuild that strong foundation, and that is what I’m offering to you,” she said.
Hughes is the fifth candidate for governor to name a running mate. Former Republican Senator Click Bishop chose Greta Schuerch of Kiana, Republican Bernadette Wilson picked former Republican Senator Mike Shower of Wasilla and former Republican Anchorage Mayor Dave Bronson picked Josh Church.

Christian Pulisic’s 18-match goalless streak for AC Milan isn’t good news for the United States men’s national team with the 2026 World Cup just weeks away. But FOX Sports soccer analyst Alexi Lalas found AC Milan manager Massimiliano Allegri’s comment about Pulisic’s sensitivity just as concerning. “The last thing that you want to be called by a coach is sensitive,” Lalas said on the most recent episode of his “State of the Union” podcast. “Christian Pulisic, as a soccer player, has certainly developed and matured into what I think, ultimately, is going to be considered the best male American soccer player in history. But he has not become the player that a lot of people envisioned. I also think that outside things can impact him, and maybe he takes them personally, and maybe he’s more emotional than you would like.” Allegri called Pulisic “very sensitive” following a recent match, adding that the United States star lets his scoring droughts “affect him more.” “He’s a player who gets into tackles and struggles more. He suffers more from this,” Allegri said. “I have to try to give the team balance by playing without a true center forward, he struggles more.” Lalas continued to emphasize that Allegri’s comment was far from ideal for Pulisic. “If this is just a recognition of how he sees this player? That’s fine,” Lalas said. “But from a public perspective, it’s just not the thing you want to hear.” Pulisic has been one of USA’s star players over the years, sitting fifth in all-time scorers for the U.S. with 32 goals in 82 appearances. Additionally, Pulisic became the youngest American player to score 10 international goals in 2019. However, Pulisic’s scoring woes have also existed in international play. He hasn’t scored in his last seven matches for the US men’s national team, with his last international goal coming in a friendly against New Zealand in September 2024. But Pulisic did have a moment when he rose to the occasion in the last World Cup. Pulisic pushed the United States into the knockout round with his decisive goal against Iran in the 2022 tournament. Now, heading into a World Cup on the United States’ home turf, the pressure is on Pulisic to deliver again. 2026 FIFA World Cup: How To Watch The World Cup will run from June 11–July 19, 2026. Spread across three countries, the tournament will culminate with the final on July 19 at New York New Jersey Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. All 104 tournament matches will air live across FOX (70) and FS1 (34) with every match streaming live and on-demand within both the FOX One and the FOX Sports apps. A record 40 matches, more than one-third of the tournament, will air in prime time across FOX (21) and FS1 (19).Latest Sports News from FOX Sports
