Former President Trump criticized Utah Senator Mitt Romney and endorsed Trent Staggs as a possible replacement.
Trump called Romney a “total loser” in a post on Truth Social and praised Staggs for being “100% MAGA.”
He highlighted Staggs’ experience as a successful entrepreneur and mayor of Riverton, emphasizing his ability to create jobs, tackle inflation, and secure the border.
Trump expressed confidence in Staggs’ support for American energy, the military, veterans, and the Second Amendment.
Romney, who has often criticized Trump, announced his retirement from the Senate, stating that it’s time for newer leaders to take charge.
Staggs, the current mayor of Riverton, Utah, was one of the first Republicans to announce his candidacy for Romney’s Senate seat. He welcomed Trump’s endorsement, expressing gratitude for the support.
