"Top House Republicans, Including Emmer, Rally Behind Trump's 2024 Bid"

U.S. House majority whip Tom Emmer has endorsed Donald Trump for president, joining other Republican leaders in backing Trump despite his legal challenges and the controversy surrounding the January 6 Capitol attack. Trump, who faces criminal charges and civil threats, still leads in polls against potential Republican rivals and is competitive against Biden in general election polling. Emmer's endorsement, which follows endorsements from other key Republicans, is significant given Trump's previous criticism of Emmer during a failed bid for House speaker. Despite internal Republican conflicts, Trump's campaign continues to gain endorsements, including from all three other House Republicans from Minnesota and Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas.
