Representative Elise Stefanik kicks off the GOP Presidential primary race with her endorsement of former President Donald J. Trump.
I am proud to endorse my friend Donald J. Trump for President in 2024.
President Trump has always put America First, and I look forward to supporting him so we can save America.https://t.co/EXe6Rgz7mW
On Friday, in a statement shared with Breitbart, Stefanik (R-N.Y.) pointed out that under Trump’s presidency, America saw a “red hot” economy, strong southern border and a strong image at home and abroad.
She went on to remind Republicans that several polls show overwhelming support for Trump’s leadership of the GOP. She added that he will dominate all primary opponents. According to Stefanik, this fact proves that Republicans should unite around Trump now to get an early start in the campaign in order to oust President Joe Biden from the White House.
In the meantime, Trump is expected to make a big announcement on Tuesday. Experts believe he will officially throw his hat in the ring for president.
