Here Are The Senate Republicans Who Have Not Endorsed Trump

A number of Senate Republicans have continued to hold out on endorsing former President Donald Trump for 2024, after several inquiries from the Daily Caller.

Despite Trump’s positive polling and historic fundraising numbers since a New York City jury found Trump guilty on all 34 counts against him, there are still several Republicans who will not say whether or not they will be supporting Trump in November.

The Caller reached out to every Senate Republican who has yet to endorse Trump, to ask why and if they would be soon.

Here Are The Senate Republicans Who Have Not Endorsed Trump:

    Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy
    Kansas Sen. Jerry Moran
    Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski
    Utah Sen. Mitt Romney
    Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul
    Maine Sen. Susan Collins
    Indiana Sen. Todd Young

Romney, Young, Collins and Murkowski have all said they would not be voting for Trump in 2024.

Republican Oklahoma Sen. James Lankford directed the Daily Caller to a tweet to convey his endorsement.

“Congratulations to Donald Trump for an overwhelming victory in the Oklahoma Republican primary. Oklahomans want a secure border, a growing economy, lower inflation and a government that does not attack our domestic energy or our values. On to November!” the tweet reads.

The list doesn't surprise me. I am not familiar with Cassidy or Moran, but as for the others they pander to the left anyways. Rand Paul IMHO is not a RINO but does see that Trump himself is not a conservative; fiscally or constitutionally and certainly has displayed lack of moral character.  The same reasons that some of us in here cannot commit to voting for him.

LOL!  Right now, I'm wondering if Cassidy and Moran are Briefers using sock-puppet accounts.

I'm starting to think Rand Paul will endorse RFK Jr.

The Republican Party is becoming nothing more than a body who is only purpose is to protect Trump and his supporters bruised egos

No budget. No spending cuts.  Just a bunch of show hearings and fights over who could be the most submissive to Trump

They stand for nothing.

Susan Collins and Mitt Romney are two birds of a feather.

At this point in time, DJT, like him or not, is who the GOP has and most are backing him. Who else do they have???  He IS the presumptive nominee.

Romney is more conservative than is Collins, though that is a very low bar.  CPAC (pick your rating of choice) rates Romney at 62%, while Collins is at a truly pathetic 43%.  He tends to vote more conservative than his rhetoric would sometimes suggest.

I hope he'd be smarter than that. Apart from his opposition to mandated vaccines, RFK Jr. is just another Democrat socialist.

Rand Paul knows the inner workings of the COVID mess. Trump was the head of executive branch when all that went down and bears significant responsibility for it. Not hard to understand Rand's concerns about it.

Rand Paul is not going to endorse RFK Junior

Rand Paul believes in sound currency, limited federal government, and he’s a strict constitutionalist like his father

All things that neither Donald Trump or RFK Junior believe in

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
