Rep. Lance Gooden (R-Texas) has endorsed former President Donald Trump's 2024 presidential bid after a meeting with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in Washington, D.C. Gooden's endorsement is a sign of Trump's continued influence in the Republican party, and could be a precursor to other GOP endorsements as the 2024 presidential election approaches. The meeting was attended by prominent Republican senators, who have yet to make any endorsements, and DeSantis is also being floated as a potential GOP presidential contender.
