Former Texas Rep. Will Hurd Announces 2024 Presidential Run

Former Texas Rep. Will Hurd, a moderate Republican and critic of Donald Trump, on Thursday announced a bid for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination.

The move puts him in competition with the former president, who is seeking to retake the White House after losing the 2020 election.

“If we nominate a lawless, selfish, failed politician like Donald Trump who lost the House, the Senate and the White House, we all know Joe Biden will win again,” Hurd said in a campaign announcement video posted on Twitter.

“Republicans deserve better. America deserves better. It’s common sense,” he added.

Hurd previewed his decision to run during a May interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
