Former President Donald Trump endorsed Republican Tim Michels in the Wisconsin gubernatorial primary Thursday, snubbing the state’s former lieutenant governor and injecting a new level of chaos into the race.
Trump's endorsement offers an immediate boost to Michels, a multimillionaire construction company owner who has flooded the airwaves with ads in recent weeks.
