They Are All Coming Home, Realizing Trump Will Be The Republican Nominee. They know that if the election is semi-fair, Trump has this…
In a significant move signaling unity within the Republican ranks, Majority Whip Tom Emmer, R-Minn., the third-ranking House Republican, has officially thrown his support behind former President Donald Trump’s potential bid to reclaim the White House in 2024. This endorsement comes ahead of the Jan. 15 Iowa caucus, with Emmer asserting that it’s time for Republicans to unite behind their party’s frontrunner.
tom emmer finally realized what is good for him, and endorsed President Trump for 2024. Too bad he didn’t endorse Trump when he was running for Speaker… It took getting digitally bitch slapped by Donald Trump on Truth Social for Emmer to wake up. Good riddance- Laura Loomer
Emmer, who has had a more turbulent public relationship with Trump compared to other House Republican leaders, released a statement emphasizing the need for the GOP to rally behind Trump and prevent Democrats from retaining power. He stated, “Democrats have made clear they will use every tool in their arsenal to try and keep Joe Biden and his failed policies in power. We cannot let them.” Emmer’s endorsement is a crucial development, given his past clashes with Trump during the bid for House Speaker in October.
This move follows the endorsement from House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., and House GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., both of whom have thrown their support behind Trump in recent months. Additionally, National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) Chair Richard Hudson, R-N.C., and Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., endorsed Trump in November of the previous year.
Every congressional Republican in Minnesota just endorsed @realDonaldTrump.
Thank you @tomemmer for leading the way on this. https://t.co/IDfPoewuDL

The unity displayed by the House Republican leadership in supporting Trump reflects the former president’s continued dominance within the GOP. Trump has consistently led in major 2024 Republican primary polls, with recent surveys indicating a narrow overtaking of President Biden in potential general election matchups. A Fox News poll released on Dec. 17 revealed Trump’s primary race support at 69%, marking a 7% increase from the previous month.

Emmer’s endorsement is particularly noteworthy due to his complex history with Trump. Despite facing criticism and opposition from Trump and his allies during the House Speaker bid, Emmer has chosen to throw his weight behind the former president for the 2024 presidential race. Notably, Emmer was among the Republicans who voted to certify the 2020 election results, a stance that differed from 147 GOP colleagues in the House and Senate.
– Whatfinger SponsorTrump’s public endorsement of Emmer for re-election in 2022, during Emmer’s tenure as chairman of House Republicans’ campaign arm, demonstrated a reconciliation between the two figures. Trump praised Emmer as an “outstanding” representative who was diligently working toward GOP policy goals, as highlighted in a post on his Truth Social platform.
