Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah may potentially endorse President Joe Biden before the 2024 presidential election, according to a biographer of Romney. McKay Coppins, the writer of the memoir “Romney: A Reckoning,” made this claim, suggesting that Romney would not endorse former President Donald Trump in the next race. This speculation comes as Trump leads the Republican Party’s 2024 primary race, potentially setting up a rematch between him and Biden.

As a conservative Republican, I must express my strong disagreement and disappointment with Romney’s potential endorsement of Biden. It is disheartening to see a fellow Republican aligning himself with the opposing party. However, Coppins notes that Romney sees himself as a conservative and feels “alienated” by the Republican Party.
While Romney and Trump have had numerous disagreements in the past, their feud seems to persist. The former president called Romney a “RINO,” meaning “Republican in name only,” and took credit for Romney’s decision to not seek reelection. It is clear that their relationship is strained, to say the least.
Romney’s decision to not run for reelection and his potential endorsement of Biden shed light on the division within the Republican Party. It seems that some Republicans, like Romney, are disillusioned with the direction the party has taken under Trump. As a conservative, I hope that the Republican Party can find a way to unite and work towards the common goal of advancing conservative values and policies.
In the meantime, it will be interesting to keep an eye on Romney and see if he follows through with endorsing Biden. Regardless of the outcome, it is clear that his decision will have an impact on the 2024 presidential race and the future of the Republican Party.
