In a surprising turn of events, South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem has officially endorsed former President Donald Trump for the 2024 GOP presidential race. This announcement came during a GOP fundraiser rally in South Dakota, where Trump was the guest of honor.
According to sources close to the governor, Noem’s endorsement is seen as a strategic move to position herself for a role in the next Trump administration, potentially even as the vice president. This endorsement could give Noem a significant advantage among conservative voters who still hold Trump in high regard.
Governor Noem took to Twitter to share her endorsement, stating, “I am proud to endorse Donald Trump for the 2024 presidential race. He has proven time and time again that he is a true leader who puts America first. I believe he is the best candidate to continue the great work he started during his previous term.”
The ONLY person in this race who will put America back on its foundation is @realDonaldTrump.
He has my full and complete endorsement. I will do everything in my power to help him win to save this great country. pic.twitter.com/9zn5yxjSRG

As expected, this endorsement has sparked excitement among Trump supporters, who see it as a sign that their preferred candidate is gearing up for another run at the White House. However, it has also drawn criticism from Democrats and some moderate Republicans who believe that Trump’s controversial presidency should be left in the past.
