Spectrum News 1 and Tying It Together with Tim Boyum present: The Endorser.

After months of work, Tim tries to put together the “story behind the story” of Donald Trump’s surprise endorsement in North Carolina's 2022 Senate race.

On June 5, 2021, three leading candidates woke up and made the trip to Greenville, hoping to get the edge they thought they needed to win — President Trump’s endorsement. No one knew what was about to happen next. Part 3 looks at the 2022 Senate race after the Trump endorsement, why the drama was far from over and why it took much longer for the endorsement to have an impact than expected.

Prepare to visualize the story from the viewpoints of the people who put their lives on pause in efforts to replace Republican Richard Burr in the U.S. Senate. The then candidates and senior advisers explain that fateful night to Tim in this three-part Spectrum News 1 exclusive series.
