Former President Trump is offering to back a primary challenger to Rep. John Katko (R-N.Y.) after Katko voted to impeach Trump.
Trump sent the letter to the chairman of the Onondaga County Conservative Party detailing his support for a primary challenge, Syracuse.com reported. Bernie Ment, the party’s chairman, said he got the message on Monday.
The outlet obtained the letter, written on top of an April 23 article by Syracuse.com with the headline “Onondaga County Conservative Party dumps John Katko over Trump impeachment vote.”
“A great move,” Trump wrote overtop the article. “Katko will never win again. He is bad news. Please thank all including those in Wayne and Cayuga — and now Onondaga.”
“I won big in area. Will help with campaign — find a great candidate,” Trump wrote.
In addition to voting to impeach Trump, Katko also negotiated with his Democratic counterpart on the House Homeland Security Committee on an agreement for an independent commission to investigation the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. That agreement was ultimately rejected by most Republicans.
Katko is the only one out of the 10 House Republicans who voted for Trump’s impeachment that has yet to receive a primary challenger.

Good for Trump! And the Nation.
After the 2020 Steal, there is no uncertainty of who these RINOs are. There is no excuse for not sending them packing in 2022 and replacing them with MAGA patriots.
Stop saying that the Democrats stole the 2020 election. RINO-controlled state legislatures gave it to them on a platter by refusing to enforce voter ID. If we can purge enough RINOs in 2022 and replace them with MAGA patriots, especially in the state legislatures, then we stand a chance of winning back the WH in 2024.
Is there a challenger?
Why don’t the Republicans have a special piece of federal parkland along the Potomac to use as a disposal solution like the communists do...
