Senator John Thune previously denounced Trump for role in Capitol attack in 2021 but now vows to back him in 2024 election
The second-highest ranking Republican in the US Senate, John Thune of South Dakota, endorsed for president Donald Trump – the man he previously called “inexcusable” for seeking to overturn the 2020 election and inciting the deadly January 6 attack on Congress.
Multiple media outlets reported Thune’s endorsement. They also swiftly pointed out statements made by Thune after the 2021 US Capitol attack, now linked to nine deaths, more than 1,200 arrests and hundreds of convictions, some for seditious conspiracy.
Look at what happened to Liz Cheney. She dared to speak out against the Orange One and she got primaried. They all know it could happen to them too. Trump owns the Republican party lock, stock and barrel.
