This follows Trump endorsement of Rubio, the ranking Republican on the Senate Intelligence Committee, for reelection in 2022.
Last week, Trump endorsed Rubio—a former 2016 GOP presidential opponent—for his reelection.
“Marco has been a tireless advocate for the people of Florida,” Trump said in a statement. “Marco will never let the great people of Florida, or our Country, down!”
Rubio described Trump as “the most popular and most influential Republican in America” if the former president runs for the White House in 2024. Trump has not yet announced his decision on whether he will run again.
“If he decides to run for the president and the nomination, he’s going to be the party’s nominee,” Rubio told Newsmax. “That’s the way I see it.”

Rubio clarified: “He hasn’t made that decision. It’s still a long way down the road, but if Donald Trump decides to run in 2024 again, he’s going to be the Republican nominee, and I think almost everyone that I’ve talked to would agree with that.”

Referring to the former president’s endorsement, Rubio stated in the Newsmax interview: “This is an extra-special endorsement because he’s a resident and voter in Florida. So I don’t just need his endorsement, I need his vote and the votes of all his family who are also moving to Florida.”

The former commander-in-chief’s endorsement came as there was speculation his daughter, Ivanka Trump, would possibly challenge Rubio for his seat. Ivanka responded to those reports, telling news outlets that “Marco has been a tremendous advocate for working families, a good personal friend, and I know he will continue to drive meaningful progress on issues we both care deeply about.”

If Trump decides to run in 2024, he would most likely have to establish himself on social media after Twitter, Facebook, and other platforms suspended his account back in January, following the unrest at the Capitol. An aide to Trump, Jason Miller, revealed in a March interview that a possible social media platform backed by Former President Trump is being developed and could be ready as quickly as three months from now.
