List of Trump Endorsed 2022 Candidates

Donald Trump is putting his thumb on the scale in dozens of congressional races around the country.

The former president promised his supporters when leaving office that he'd return to politics. And while he's been teasing a 2024 run for the White House, in the meantime he's issued endorsements in federal and statewide races ahead of the 2022 midterm election cycle.

Some Republicans, like House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, have welcomed Trump's assistance as the party looks to regain control of Congress. Currently, Democrats enjoy a narrow majority in the House and an advantage in the evenly divided Senate with Vice President Kamala Harris available to cast any tie-breaking votes.

But others want to see the GOP distance itself from the embattled former president. Longtime strategists such as Karl Rove have warned that Trump's obsession with rehashing the 2020 election could do more harm than good for the party.

In fact, Trump has endorsed several conservative candidates who are challenging sitting Republican members of Congress who voted to impeach him after the U.S. Capitol riot or criticized him for his false claims about election fraud.

But polls have shown that Trump continues to be a dominant political force among GOP voters. According to a new Morning Consult/Politico survey, most Republicans would vote for him to be the party's presidential candidate again in 2024.
