President Donald Trump has endorsed former Fox News host Steve Hilton in the California governor's race, potentially impacting the GOP's chances of winning the seat. The endorsement, made on Truth Social Monday, may have killed Republicans' hopes of Hilton and Republican Chad Bianco leading in the state's primary and preventing a split Democrat ticket from reaching the run-off. The announcement of Trump's endorsement also means Democrats may not have to spend heavily on one of the Republican candidates to avoid a Democratic lockout.
