A handful of Republican politicians are throwing their weight behind former President Donald Trump's recently announced 2024 presidential campaign.
Trump formally debuted his third bid for the White House Tuesday evening, vowing to "make America great and glorious again." Amid growing murmurs of trepidation over Trump trickling through conservative circles, most Republican heavyweights have so far abstained from officially backing him, opting to hold out and assess his likely primary rivals.
His announcement followed a lackluster midterm outing for the GOP in which the party dramatically underperformed expectations. Some Republican detractors have pinned the blame on Trump's political baggage for dragging down candidates in tight races.
Here is a list of prominent GOP figures that have backed Trump's comeback bid.
Elise Stefanik
Preempting Trump's formal launch, Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), who heads the House GOP conference, gave a full-throated endorsement of the former president. She later insisted that Trump was the clear leader of the Republican Party.
“I am proud to endorse Donald Trump for president in 2024,” Stefanik told the New York Times. “It is time for Republicans to unite around the most popular Republican in America who has a proven track record of conservative governance.”
