VIRGINIA – New reporting from 7 News details how Donald Trump again refused to endorse Winsome Earle-Sears in the governor’s race. During a press conference, Trump wished Youngkin luck with Virginia’s elections but did not mention Sears by name. 
 
“Months of backing Trump’s reckless agenda that’s hurting Virginia still hasn’t earned Winsome Earle-Sears an endorsement from Trump. Although that won’t stop her from continuing to sell out Virginia jobs and Virginians’ healthcare to try and appease him,” said DPVA Spokesperson Maggie Amjad.
