Trump Endorses Barrasso for Senate GOP Whip

Former President Donald Trump has officially endorsed Sen. John Barrasso to become the next Senate Republican whip, solidifying Barrasso's unopposed run for the position.

Trump praised Barrasso as a 'fantastic Senator' who 'will never let you down,' emphasizing the importance of the whip role in passing strong legislation.
Barrasso, currently the Senate Republican Conference chair, is running unopposed for the whip position and has secured enough votes to succeed Sen. John Thune.
Barrasso aims to bring greater openness and transparency to the process, prioritizing consensus within the Conference over deal-making among a few.
The endorsement comes as Trump has not yet endorsed a candidate for Senate minority leader, with the race to replace Barrasso as Conference chair heating up.
Barrasso has been a leading conservative voice, particularly on energy and immigration policy, and has actively campaigned for Trump-backed candidates nationwide.
