Former President Donald Trump has endorsed former congressman Mike Rogers, a Republican running for Senate in Michigan.
“Highly respected former Congressman Mike Rogers is running for the United States Senate from the Great State of Michigan,” Trump said, noting that Rogers has “served his Country during a career loaded up with accolades and wins, from the Army to Congress, and now, hopefully, the U.S. Senate.”
Trump said Rogers will work with him “closely” to make “America First Policies” a reality and described him as a fighter for a secure border and sound economy.
“Mike will work closely with me to enact our America First Policies. He will tirelessly fight to Secure the Border, Stop Inflation, Grow the Economy, Strengthen our Military / Veteran Support, and Protect and Defend our always under siege Second Amendment,” he said.
“Mike Rogers will be a Great and Powerful Senator for Michigan, and has my Complete and Total Endorsement,” Trump wrote, adding, “HE KNOWS HOW TO WIN!”
February polls showed Rogers leading primary challenger Rep. Peter Meijer (R-MI), who voted to impeach Trump.
“You know, places that are really important, you know, those kinds of Reagan Democrats that now have become, you know, Trump Democrats. That tells you that the Democrats should be nervous about what’s going on here in the state of Michigan. And clearly, the Democrats have been the party of the elite,” Rogers said. “You know, they don’t buy their own groceries. They don’t pump their own gas. That’s why they’re running around the country saying, ‘Everything is better.’”
“Well, not if you work for a living, and here in Michigan, we work for a living. So that sends a very clear message, I think, and why I think that puts the president in a great place to actually win the state of Michigan. We win the state of Michigan, we will win,” Rogers continued.
