Bill Cassidy (R-LA), who lost in May after Trump endorsed an opposing GOP candidate. Cassidy drew Trump's ire after voting to convict him at his second impeachment trial.The Trump-endorsed Rep.

"That's an earthquake. That's in Louisiana. That's a hardcore red state, as you can imagine.

"Just watch the race Saturday, and if Fleming wins that, I don't know how else you could interpret that but that Trump's just losing his grip on his base."
