maker. >> margaret, the last governor was elected in 2018. he's a conservative republican, fought for vaccine requirements, he was endorsed by former president trump in 2018. he doesn't really have much of a primary challenge if he has one at all in this point in time. so it's not like this is a competitive race. what's the rationale here from the former president? >> to stay in the news and to stay relevant and to try to keep endorsements of murkowski at a minimum. murkowski is the only gop senator who voted to convict in impeachment who is up this year, and trump is furious with her and has been for a long time and wants anyone but her and has endorsed someone else in that primary. don't forget, though, murkowski is the one who, when she lost her own gop primary to a candidate a decade ago or so, went back as a writing candidate
