Summary
Trump’s surprise dual endorsement of both Alan Wilson and Pamela Evette in South Carolina’s GOP governor’s runoff has turned a predictable race into political theater, testing his influence in a state that hasn’t elected a Democrat to the top job in 28 years. The move echoes his 2022 Missouri Senate play, where backing two candidates kept factions happy — but this time, the heat between Wilson, the seasoned AG and vet, and Evette, the outsider Trump loyalist, is turning into a brutal mudslinging contest. With Trump’s backing not guaranteeing victory — as Iowa showed — the real question is whether his split support can unify the GOP or fracture it further ahead of the general election.
