Former United Kingdom Prime Minister Liz Truss is hoping a Republican will defeat President Joe Biden in 2024.
Writing for The Wall Street Journal she said: “For as long as most of us can recall, the US has led the free world. During the Cold War, for example, it was American power that successfully held off the communist threat from the Soviet Union. Working in tandem with British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, President Ronald Reagan was unflinching, calling the Soviet Union an ‘evil empire.'”
“The world would benefit from more of that kind of American leadership today. I hope that a Republican will be returned to the White House in 2024. There must be conservative leadership in the U.S. that is once again bold enough to call out hostile regimes as evil and a threat.”
Truss also commented during a visit to Washington, D.C., accompanied by a delegation of MPs from the Conservative Friends of Ukraine group, where she highlighted the need to challenge hostile regimes.
The former Prime Minister's comments come as the White House primaries heat up. Donald Trump is currently leading the Republican primary field but numerous polls report former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley gaining traction. President Biden is dominating the Democrats, however, his age has triggered concerns among American voters.
