Trump's Endorsement by GOP Leaders Signals Uneasy Alliance Ahead of 2024.
TL;DR Summary
Mitch McConnell is trying to front-run Donald Trump ahead of the 2024 election by focusing on Senate campaigns in red states like West Virginia, Ohio, and Montana, where the party can win even with Trump at the top of the ticket. McConnell hopes to run a Senate campaign plan that’s divorced from the presidential race, getting candidates who can win even if Trump backs another challenger. McConnell's end-around of Trump comes with some political risk, as his conference is beginning to coalesce around the former president, who has 10 Senate endorsements, with more coming.
