The 45th president announced his endorsement for governor of Massachusetts for the 2022 election. In a statement Tuesday, Trump backed former state representative Geoff Diehl while stressing he’s a true patriot.
Trump noted that Diehl is tough on crime, loves the military and is a proponent of election integrity. The 45th president also lambasted the incumbent GOP governor, Charlie Baker, saying he’s “not an ‘America First’ kind of guy.”
