This suggests that Republicans have accepted Trump as the frontrunner among the GOP presidential candidates.
US House Speaker Mike Johnson has endorsed Donald Trump’s candidacy for the Republican presidential nomination. This indicates support for the former president among the majority of the party.
“I’m all for President Trump,” Johnson said on CNBC .
Before that, Johnson led congressional efforts to overturn Trump’s defeat in the 2020 election. After Trump’s defeat, Johnson drafted a legal brief signed by 125 other House Republicans that tried to convince the Supreme Court to throw out the election results in several disputed states that Trump lost to Democrat Joe Biden.
In an interview with CNBC, Johnson defended Trump’s actions, saying the former president believed “deep in his heart” that the election was stolen.
At the same time, Johnson still has relatively low popularity, so it is unclear how much his support will matter to voters. However, the endorsement shows that Republicans have accepted Trump as the front-runner for the GOP presidential nomination, even though many thought that would not happen after his 2020 election defeat.
Trump could become the next US president
As UNIAN wrote, the next presidential elections in the United States will take place in November 2024. The Republican Party, from which Trump ran in 2016 and 2020, has not yet identified its official candidate – an internal “election” procedure is currently underway. But it is Donald Trump who has the highest rating among Republicans.
Current US President Joe Biden is now behind Trump in 5 out of 6 key states. In previous elections it was the other way around.
At the same time, as Democratic Congressman Jamie Raskin warned, if Donald Trump returns to the White House, his second term as US president will resemble the rule of Vladimir Putin and other authoritarian leaders.

Ukraine has one year to defeat Russia…………………………
Unless Nikki Haley can pull off something spectacular, the GOP seems hell bent on nominating a putler-groveller.
Unless the Dems dump Biden and nominate Dean Phillips, the Dems will be defeated. If they choose a leftist like Newsome, they will be defeated.
Ukraine’s destiny seems to be in the hands of the voters in a few swing states :

It beats me how some Republicans could have lowered themselves so far into the stinking gutter.
I had no problem with Trump in office.
At least he kept Putin at bay, unlike Obama and Biden.
“kept Putin at bay”
LOL. putler was waiting for his puppet to pull the US out of NATO. Fortunately, trumpkov failed to get re-elected.
Is that what the Leftist media told you, and you believed it?!
Bhaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
I don’t follow any “Leftist media”. But trumpkov repeatedly stated his desire to pull out of NATO. This has been confirmed by numerous of his national security officials.
Admiral James G. Stavridis, the former supreme allied commander of NATO, said that “Even discussing the idea of leaving NATO — let alone actually doing so — would be the gift of the century for Putin.”
Its true but you won’t find it in the Leftist media. Trump has spoken openly about it that Poopin always wanted to talk about Ukraine and Trump kept telling him “Don’t do it! Don’t do it! Don’t do it!” And the little dictator would tell Trump, “You’re not serious. You won’t do anything.” And Trump would respond, “Oh yes we will!”
Fact is, that kept the little misfit mistake in check, but something changed in 2021…
Bhaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
You believed anything that trumpkov said?
