Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) has preemptively endorsed former President Trump for another White House bid ahead of his scheduled โ€œspecial announcementโ€ at Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday.

โ€œI am proud to endorse Donald J. Trump for President in 2024. I fully support him running again,โ€ Stefanik said in a statement to Breitbart News. โ€œUnder his presidency, America was strong at home and abroad, our economy was red hot, our border was secure, our neighborhoods were safe, our law enforcement was respected, and our enemies feared us.โ€ 

โ€œWe cannot afford another four years of Joe Bidenโ€™s failed policies that have led to the inflation crisis, border crisis, and crime crisis. It is time for Republicans to unite around the most popular Republican in America, who has a proven track record of conservative governance,โ€ Stefanik said.

Stefanik is currently the chair of the House Republican Conference, the No. 3 position in the House GOP. She is running for reelection to that post, which would be the No. 4 position if Republicans win a majority in the chamber.

Trump endorsed Stefanik for another term as Conference Chair this week ahead of the midterm elections.

โ€œI think sheโ€™s fantastic,โ€ he told Fox News.

Her full-throated support of Trump comes as many in the Republican Party are growing more vocal about wanting Trump to step back from politics after the midterm elections fell well short of Republican expectations of a red wave.

Sen. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.), who is retiring from Congress, said on CNN that Trumpโ€™s inserting himself into primaries โ€œchanged the nature of the race and that created just too much of an obstacle.โ€ Former Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) said that Trump is โ€œa drag on our ticketโ€ and โ€œgives us problems politically.โ€

Stefanik, though, asserted that โ€œitโ€™s very clear President Trump is the leader of the Republican party.โ€

โ€œIt is time for Republicans to unite around the most popular Republican in America, who has a proven track record of conservative governance. Poll after poll shows that President Trump would defeat any Republican challenger by massive margins, and would beat Joe Biden if the election were held today,โ€ she said.
