Former President Donald Trump touted his 22 endorsed candidates in Ohio and Indiana that swept to victory in their primary races on Tuesday while predicting it was just the beginning of a “tremendous season” for Republicans he supports.
Trump did an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital, proclaiming it was “a really great night for Republicans.”
“I was 22 and 0,” he boasted. “I won every race.”
Those endorsed included JD Vance in Ohio who won his primary handily. The venture capitalist and bestselling author of “Hillbilly Elegy” landed Trump’s endorsement less than three weeks ago in the Senate race, despite having previously spoken against the former president.

“Thanks to the president for everything, for endorsing me,” Vance said in his victory speech. “A lot of fake news media out there wanted to write the story that this campaign would be the death of Donald Trump’s ‘America First’ agenda. Ladies and gentlemen, it ain’t the death of the ‘America First’ agenda.”
Democratic Rep. Tim Ryan easily won the Democratic nomination. Vance accused Ryan Tuesday night of running as a “Trump Democrat,” according to NPR.
“I think JD showed tremendous strength,” Trump remarked. “It was a great victory for everyone, but I am most happy for the Republican Party because we have great candidates. I think all of them will be winning in the fall.

Former GOP Sen. David Perdue has been endorsed by Trump in Georgia’s gubernatorial race. He is running against incumbent Gov. Brian Kemp who is reportedly leading in the race, according to opinion polling. He is also out-raising Perdue in the race.
Tonight was a great win for our campaign. We exposed that Brian Kemp is a weak governor who divided our party.
