House Majority Leader Steve Scalise has thrown his support behind former President Donald Trump in the upcoming 2024 presidential race.
Scalise (R-La.) took to X (Twitter) on Tuesday to publicly endorse the 45th president, expressing his eagerness to collaborate with Trump, the Republican House, and the Senate in fighting for struggling families burdened by President Biden’s failed policies.
Trump responded to the endorsement on his social media platform, Truth Social, expressing his gratitude for the support.
“I will not let you, or our Country, down!” Trump wrote.
Scalise’s endorsement comes after a period of tension between him and Trump, during which Trump questioned Scalise’s health and suggested he was unfit for the position of Speaker of the House. Despite battling a curable form of blood cancer, Scalise had to withdraw from the speaker’s race due to divisions within the GOP conference.
Other prominent House Republicans, including Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-La.) and House Republican Conference Chair Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), have also pledged their support to Trump.
