Arr, me hearties! GOP Sens. John Cornyn and Deb Fischer be throwin' their support behind former President Trump, mateys! They be callin' on all scallywags to band together to take down President Biden and tackle the border, economy, and our nation's security. Let's set sail and make some waves!
In a humorous tone reminiscent of a 17th century pirate, GOP Senators John Cornyn and Deb Fischer have endorsed former President Trump after his win in the New Hampshire primary. Fischer stated that it is time for Republicans to unite around Trump and prevent Joe Biden from becoming a two-term president. She highlighted issues such as the border crisis, inflationary economy, and global turmoil as reasons for her endorsement. Similarly, Cornyn emphasized the need for Republicans to rally around a single candidate, and according to him, Trump is the choice of Republican voters.These endorsements add to the growing list of more than 15 GOP senators who have endorsed Trump, including JD Vance, Marsha Blackburn, Rick Scott, Josh Hawley, Tom Cotton, Lindsey Graham, and others. The pressure is also increasing on former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley to suspend her campaign and support Trump. Many lawmakers believe that the GOP should unite behind Trump, who is expected to be the Republican nominee for the 2024 presidential election.
Trump's victory in the New Hampshire primary, defeating Haley, further solidified his position as the frontrunner. Independent voters, who make up a significant portion of the electorate in New Hampshire, had the opportunity to vote in either major party's contest. Haley had spent considerable time and resources in the state and had secured the endorsement of popular Republican Governor Chris Sununu. However, Trump's dominance in both early voting states has overshadowed Haley's efforts.
When asked about Haley suspending her campaign, Trump responded in a pirate-like manner, saying, "I don't know. She should." Nonetheless, Haley has declared her intention to continue her campaign following the primary.
