NextImg:Larry Elder suspends 2024 presidential campaign, endorses Donald Trump

Radio host Larry Elder suspended his longshot presidential campaign late Thursday, endorsing former President Donald Trump for the 2024 Republican nomination.

Elder — who sought to be governor of California as part of a failed recall effort against Democrat Gavin Newsom in 2021 — made the announcement after meeting with Trump, 77, at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Fla.

“As I look at the path forward, and after careful consideration and consultation with my campaign team, I have made the difficult decision to suspend my campaign,” Elder, 71, said in a lengthy statement on social media.

“Now that I am exiting the race, I am proud to announce my endorsement of Donald Trump for president of the United States,” he added, calling for Republicans to unite behind the GOP frontrunner in order to defeat President Biden next year.

Elder has been polling below 1%, not making any headway against the wide Republican field.

The longtime radio host announced his candidacy in April and had built his platform around shedding light on the crisis of fatherlessness and his opposition to the notion that America is systemically racist.

Elder failed to qualify for either debate hosted by the Republican National Committee due to insufficient polling numbers and donors.

He’s the fourth candidate to drop out of the Republican race, following Miami Mayor Francis Suarez, former Rep. Will Hurd of Texas and businessman Perry Johnson.
