Records robocall endorsing Bob Turner, attacks Obama policies

Trump inserted himself into the special election for Anthony Weiner's vacated seat, recording a robocall for Republican Bob Turner. In the call, he told voters to "send a message to President Obama" about his "disastrous" economic policies. Turner's subsequent upset victory in the heavily Democratic district was touted by Trump as proof of his political influence, reinforcing his role as a GOP kingmaker.
