Former President Trump endorses Katie Britt in the Alabama GOP Senate race after ditching Mo Brooks.
Trump called Britt “an incredible fighter for the people of Alabama.” The former president had originally backedin the race, but rescinded that endorsement in March after their relationship soured.
“Above all, Katie Britt will never let you down,” Trump wrote, adding, “she has my complete and total endorsement!” Trump endorsed Brooks last year, rewarding the conservative firebrand who had been an ardent supporter of Trump’s false 2020 election fraud claims. Brooks had whipped up a crowd of Trump supporters at the Jan. 6, 2021, rally that preceded the U.S. Capitol insurrection.
Britt led the primary field in the May primary, and has been seeking Trump’s support since he backed away from Brooks.Trump’s glowing endorsement of Britt is a stark contrast to statements he made a year ago about her when he called her “not in any way qualified” and describing her as an “assistant” to a “RINO Senator,” referring to Shelby as a “Republican in name only.”
