No one is less excited about former President Trump coming to town than Pat McCrory. Two recent polls show him down double digits to Budd, attack ads against him are littered all over televisions across the state, and Trump is sure to criticize his campaign once again in front of the Republican base voters he needs to make it out of the contentious May primary.

This Throwback Thursday, take a look back at the last time Trump was in North Carolina:

“[Budd] is a man that hasn’t been pushing me at all – unlike some of the others that won’t win. 

“You know we have another race after this one.

“You can’t pick people who have already lost two races and do not stand for our values.”
