  • Trump backed U.S. Rep. Randy Feenstra for Iowa governor in a Truth Social post Friday, injecting himself into the race just days before voting ends June 2.
  • Feenstra is one of five Republicans seeking the nomination, and the endorsement lands after his campaign attacked rival Zach Lahn, who outraised him from Jan. 1 to May 14.
  • Feenstra called the endorsement an honor and tied his campaign closely to Trump's agenda, pledging to work with him on border policy, deportations and tax cuts.
  • The GOP winner will face Democratic State Auditor Rob Sand in the fall, a contest Cook Political Report has rated a toss-up.
