GOP Lawmakers Endorse Trump for 2024, Sparking Twitter Laughter and Controversy.
Republican Congressman Greg Steube mistakenly referred to former President Donald Trump as "Donald J. Chump" during an endorsement for his 2024 presidential campaign on Newsmax. Steube, who was among the 147 Republicans who voted to overturn the 2020 election results, praised Trump's "American first" policies and noted his widespread support in Florida. Twitter users found humor in Steube's slip of the tongue, with some speculating it was a Freudian slip. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who is also expected to run in 2024, reportedly called Republican members of the Florida congressional delegation asking them to hold off on endorsements.
