Trump wins Steve Scalise endorsement in 2024 race

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA) endorsed former President Donald Trump on Tuesday, delivering his campaign a major win just two weeks from the Iowa caucuses.

"When Donald Trump was President, American workers and families were thriving," Scalise said in a statement to Fox News.

The endorsement is a safe one, as Trump leads by a sizable margin in just about every poll, and he is widely expected to run away with the nomination and take on President Joe Biden in November.

"In this race, there is one man who has a proven track record of being able to save our country and get us back on track: Donald Trump," Scalise said.
"He has done it once before, and I know he will do it again," Scalise continued.

"I am proud to endorse Donald Trump for president in 2024, and I look forward to working with President Trump and a Republican House and Senate to fight for those families who are struggling under the weight of Biden's failed policies," the Louisiana congressman added.
