Elise Stefanik Withdraws Endorsement Of GOP Candidate Who Mildly Criticized Trump
HuffPost
House hopeful Craig Riedel called Trump "arrogant." Can you believe that?
A top Republican has just taken away her endorsement from a House candidate because he said something about Donald Trump that wasn’t praise.
Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), the House’s third-ranking Republican, announced Thursday on social media that she had withdrawn her endorsement of Craig Riedel, a GOP former state representative running for Congress from Ohio.
“I was very disappointed in his inappropriate comments regarding President Trump,” Stefanik said. “As we begin 2024, my focus is on ensuring we nominate the strongest candidates on the ballot who are committed to electing President Trump this November and expanding our House GOP Majority.”
Riedel’s crime? He said he wouldn’t endorse Trump and suggested his habit of insulting people is not presidential.
“I think he is arrogant. I don’t like the way he calls people names. I just don’t think that’s very becoming of a president,” Riedel said in an audio recording posted by right-wing activist Charlie Kirk last month.
