In a surprise move, former US President Donald Trump has thrown his weight behind Steve Hilton, a former British government aide and Fox News host, in the upcoming California governor's election. Trump's endorsement is expected to boost Hilton's chances in the highly competitive race, as the former president's loyal voter base may be swayed by his support. Hilton, who has been a vocal critic of California's Democratic leadership, has been positioning himself as a conservative alternative to the state's current governor. With Trump's backing, Hilton's campaign is likely to gain significant traction, setting the stage for an intriguing showdown in the Golden State.
