DETROIT — U.S. Rep. Fred Upton believes Donald Trump will be a presidential candidate in 2024 and will be "hard to stop" as Trump continues to have strong support from the Republican Party's base despite the Jan. 6 hearings.
"The voters still like him a lot and we see that certainly in Michigan," Upton, R-Mich., said Sunday during an appearance on CNN's "State of the Union" with Dana Bash, adding Trump successfully endorsed some candidates in Michigan, but lost a few.
"He certainly entertains a majority of the Republican base and will be hard to stop. Frankly, as we look at the economy, the gas prices and all these different things, folks are not really happy with the Biden administration, which is why he is mired in a level even below Donald Trump was in his tenure," Upton continued.
