President Trump's endorsement of former House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Rogers as the Michigan Senate candidate has sparked controversy. Senator Rand Paul criticized Rogers as a 'Deep State candidate,' prompting Elon Musk to support Paul. Paul accused Trump of making a 'huge mistake' with the endorsement, citing Rogers' FISA support. Despite the backlash, Trump stands by his endorsement, praising Rogers as a strong candidate for Michigan's Senate seat.
