The father-in-law of Trump's 'bro' is the Ohio GOP's newest Senate contender
Luxury car dealer Bernie Moreno on Tuesday declared that he’d seek the Republican nomination to challenge Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown in Ohio, an announcement that came days after Donald Trump fired off a not-tweet gushing over him.
While Trump didn’t quite endorse the wealthy candidate, who dropped out of last year’s primary for the state’s other Senate seat at Trump’s behest, he praised Moreno as “the highly respected businessman from the GREAT STATE of OHIO, and the father-in-law of fantastic young Congressman, Max Miller.” The son-in-law in question is a former White House aide who was so close to Trump that a source told Politico in 2021, “They had … kind of a unique ‘bro’ relationship.”
