MI-GOV: John James (R) expresses confidence he'll get Trump endorsement in Michigan

Rep. John James (R), who is running for governor of Michigan, said he was optimistic that he would win the endorsement of President Trump in the Republican primary.

“President Trump knows that I’ve been in his corner, he’s been in mine, and I’m excited to use this opportunity I have to help make Michigan great again,” James said during an interview with The Hill’s Mychael Schnell at the Hill Nation Summit on Wednesday.

An endorsement from Trump would be a key win for James in the primary field, which includes state Senate GOP leader Aric Nesbitt.

James brushed off the fact that Trump has yet to offer an endorsement, noting the president is busy with a number of things including trying to achieve “peace.”
