25 OUTLETSDonald Trump rallied in Myrtle Beach for Darline Graham ahead of her Republican Senate runoff against Ralph Norman, urging voters to support her. Center outlets largely report Trump’s endorsement and campaign appeal, often adding context about Graham’s debate answer and the race’s implications for his influence. Right-leaning outlets also focus on Trump’s intervention, but give more weight to whether it can help Graham and to concerns about her campaign; their articles differ in how much they support her.
