Florida Senator Marco Rubio expressed his unwavering support for former President Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election on the eve of the crucial Iowa Caucuses.
On Sunday afternoon, Rubio (R-Fla.) announced his support for Trump in the 2024 presidential election a day before the Iowa caucuses. This marks the 23rd senator to endorse the 45th president.
Rubio criticized the Biden administration’s record in a post on X, contending that Trump’s “extraordinary actions” are required to “fix the disaster” of the nation.
“It’s time to get on with the work of beating Biden & saving America!” declared the Florida Republican, who was once a critic of Trump when he ran against him in 2016.
“When Trump was in WH I achieved major policies I had worked on for years (like expanded Child Tax Credit & tough sanctions on regime in Cuba & Venezuela) because we had a President who didn’t cave to special interests or let bureaucrats block us,” Rubio wrote on X. “I support Trump because that kind of leadership is the ONLY way we will get the extraordinary actions needed to fix the disaster Biden has created. It’s time to get on with the work of beating Biden & saving America!”
With the support of Senator Rick Scott (R-Fla.), who backed Trump in November after pledging to stay out of the race, both senators from Florida are now supporting Trump over the governor of their home state thanks to Rubio’s endorsement.
Rubio showed his support one day before the Iowa caucuses and just hours after North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum (R-N.D.), who also challenged Trump in 2024, endorsed the former president during a rally in the Hawkeye State in Iowa.
Rubio’s support is a significant win for Trump, particularly as he keeps attempting to outshine Governor Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) in the state where they both reside.

Will Rubio’s endorsement of Trump influence the outcome of the primaries and ultimately the presidential race in 2024
Florida Senator Marco Rubio Endorses Donald Trump for 2024 Presidential Election
In a significant move ahead of the Iowa caucuses, Florida Senator Marco Rubio has expressed his unwavering support for former President Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election. This endorsement is particularly noteworthy as Rubio had been a critic of Trump during the 2016 presidential race.
Rubio announced his support for Trump on Sunday afternoon, becoming the 23rd senator to endorse the 45th president. In a post on a social media platform, Rubio criticized the Biden administration’s record and argued that Trump’s “extraordinary actions” are needed to remedy the nation’s current situation.
When Trump was in the White House, Rubio highlighted that he was able to accomplish significant policies he had long worked on, such as expanded Child Tax Credit and tough sanctions on regimes in Cuba and Venezuela. According to Rubio, Trump’s leadership was instrumental in these achievements, as he did not succumb to special interests or allow bureaucratic obstacles to hinder progress.
Rubio’s endorsement signals a shift in support within Florida’s Republican circles. With Senator Rick Scott also backing Trump, both senators from Florida are now throwing their support behind the former president, surpassing the endorsement of their own home state’s governor.
Rubio’s endorsement coincided with North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, who also challenged Trump for the 2024 Republican nomination, endorsing Trump during a rally in Iowa. This comes as a blow to Rubio’s attempt to outshine Florida Governor Ron DeSantis in their home state.
Overall, Rubio’s endorsement of Trump holds significant weight as it solidifies Trump’s position within the Republican Party and adds momentum to his potential presidential campaign. As the 2024 election season unfolds, it will be interesting to see how these endorsements shape the political landscape and influence the outcome of the primaries and ultimately the presidential race.
