President Withdraws Endorsement of Colorado Representative Over Support for Kentucky Colleague

The president withdrew an earlier endorsement of a Colorado representative after she backed a Kentucky congressman in his primary election. The representative said she saw the president's post but was not offended. She stated she knew the risks when she agreed to support her colleague and would continue to stand by him.

The president had previously endorsed the Colorado representative for re-election, describing her as a MAGA warrior. The filing deadline for Colorado's congressional primaries passed in March, making it too late for a new candidate to enter the race.

Background on the Dispute The Kentucky congressman has publicly disagreed with the president on legislation involving Iran and the release of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein. He described the upcoming primary as a national referendum on the president's influence.

The representative shared a photo with the Kentucky congressman on social media and said he loves America and is fighting to save it. She also posted a photo with the president and said she supports both men. The president endorsed a different candidate in the Kentucky primary, describing him as a true American patriot.

The Kentucky primary is scheduled for Tuesday.
