Trump suggests challenging Rep. Boebert as she campaigns with Massie in Kentucky

Former President Donald Trump threatened to withdraw his endorsement of Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) on Saturday, as she campaigned with Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) ahead of her reelection bid.

Trump voiced his criticism on Truth Social, calling Boebert “weak-minded” and questioning whether there was “anyone interested” in challenging her, according to posts made by the former president.

The remarks come as Boebert faces a challenging reelection race in Colorado. Her campaign activities with Massie in Kentucky appeared to draw Trump’s ire, signaling potential internal GOP disagreements and the possibility of a primary challenge.

It was not immediately clear whether Trump’s comments would lead to a formal withdrawal of his endorsement or if he would endorse a challenger against Boebert in the upcoming election.
