Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) endorsed former President Donald Trump in the 2024 election on Wednesday.
In a post to X, the Arkansas Republican argued that the economy, border security, and national security were in a stronger position during Trump’s first term in the White House than they are under President Joe Biden.
“When Donald Trump was president, America was safe, strong, and prosperous. The economy was booming, working-class wages were growing, our border was secure, and our enemies feared us,” Cotton said. “With Joe Biden as president, everything has gone to hell: families can’t afford groceries, our border is wide open to a full-blown invasion, and our enemies are starting wars everywhere.”
* This is not a big surprise, but he adds his name to other senators endorsing Trump. Cotton supported Trump in 2016. He does, though, on occasion, split with Trump on issues. – Karen
