If Trump wins he might have a more difficult time, but if Trump loses then few people that support him will care if he failed to endorse the guy who ended up losing to the woman who was under investigation for most of her campaign.
General election voters won't remember this. Primary voters most certainly will. These are the die hard political base. They don't forget. He hung himself last night.

The only question I have is how it effects his Senate re-election run if he gets challenged in the primary. If he doesn't get challenged, obviously he wins re-election.
