Former President Trump announced Saturday plans to travel to Alaska and campaign against Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski ahead of the 2022 midterms.
Why it matters: The Alaskan senator was one of seven Republicans who voted to convict Trump of inciting the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection. She’s the only one of the group up for re-election in 2022.
What they’re saying: Trump said in a statement first issued to Politico that he would “not be endorsing, under any circumstances, the failed candidate from the great State of Alaska, Lisa Murkowski.”
