Roger Marshall, R-Kans., endorsed former President Trump in the 2024 presidential race on Monday, calling for an end to the \u2018political primary charade.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"speakable\">Marshall, an ally of Trump since the former president\u2019s one term in office, said he is endorsing Trump to bolster the priorities of farmers, restore border security and slash inflation rates caused by the Biden administration.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Since the day Joe Biden stepped foot in the Oval Office, this White House declared war on American agriculture and American energy independence in pursuit of their Green New Deal agenda and electric vehicle mandates,\u2019 Marshall said in a statement to Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Joe Biden declared war on American sovereignty by opening our borders, ceding control to the cartels, allowing nearly 10 million illegal aliens into our country, and permitting lethal fentanyl to pour into our communities,\u2019 he continued.<\/p>\n<p>Marshall blamed Biden\u2019s \u2018absent leadership\u2019 and said he abandoned the country\u2019s \u2018Christian values and undermined our constitutional rights.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Our farmers and ranchers feed the world, and Kansans deserve a President who understands that, and a leader who values the energy Americans produce. That is why I\u2019m endorsing President Donald Trump. While others may try to imitate him, only President Trump will put our country back on track on day one,\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Along with the onslaught of strangling regulations, Joe Biden declared war on our economy by unleashing a level of federal spending never seen in modern history, causing the highest inflation and interest rates that we\u2019ve seen in decades,\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u2018It\u2019s time for the GOP to unite behind President Trump. Let\u2019s end the political primary charade and focus on retiring Joe Biden.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Marshall was a vocal critic against the Democrat-led impeachment hearing in 2021 following the Jan. 6 Capitol riots and voted to acquit Trump in February. At the time, he said \u2018both sides of the aisle are guilty of heated rhetoric,\u2019 regarding Jan. 6.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u2018But, equally guilty are the House Managers and the Democrats for their hypocrisy, and President Trump\u2019s defense team painted that picture clearly,\u2019 he said in February 2021.<\/p>\n<p>The senator also supported Trump\u2019s efforts to tighten election integrity after the contested 2020 general election.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Marshall joins a group of a dozen Republicans in the upper chamber who have already endorsed Trump.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Trump has the support of nearly 80 Republicans in the House. On Sunday, Trump also received the backing of Texas Gov. Greg Abbott.<\/p>\n<p>Trump leads the GOP nomination race with the backing of a record 62% of Republican primary voters in a new Fox News survey published last week. That translates to a roughly 50-point gap between Trump and Ron DeSantis (14%), and Nikki Haley (11%). Vivek Ramaswamy (7%), Chris Christie (3%), and Asa Hutchinson (1%) trail even further.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>This post appeared first on FOX NEWS<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Read this article for free!
