In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump lavished praise on Jordan, saying he will be a “GREAT Speaker” and has the former president’s “Complete & Total Endorsement!”
Highlighting Jordan’s conservative credentials, Trump wrote he is “STRONG on Crime, Borders, our Military/Vets, & 2nd Amendment.”
The post then ran through Jordan’s resume, including the “Presidential Medal of Freedom” awarded to him by Trump and his high school and college sporting achievements as a wrestler.
