Colorado Republican Senate nominee says he would 'actively campaign' against Trump in 2024

“I don’t think Donald Trump should run again,” O’Dea said in an interview Sunday on CNN’s "State of the Union." “I’m going to actively campaign against Donald Trump and make sure that we’ve got four or five really great Republicans right now.”

Among those mentioned as potential 2024 GOP presidential candidates are former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.

According to O'Dea, he believes such candidates will be able to be president longer than one term.

“They can run and serve for eight years,” he said. “I’m going to do my job as a U.S. senator to make sure that they have good campaigns in the primary here so we have a good selection of candidates for 2024.”

O'Dea is also critical of Trump's handling of the Jan 6., 2021, Capitol riot.

“I’ve been very vocal that I thought he should have done more to keep the violence from heading towards the Capitol," O'Dea said. "Anybody that was violent at the Capitol or tore something apart, they should be held accountable.”

According to a recent poll done by Marist, the current incumbent Colorado Democrat Sen. Michael Bennet is ahead of O'Dea by seven points.

Wow, the stupidity of that statement is breathtaking. Any Republican NOT running on MAGA is most certainly NOT a "great Republican." They are "Democrats."

Somehow Democrats stick together in 100% lockstep even if their guy is a pedophile, or lied about being a veteran, and Repubs consistently get turds in the punchbowl like this guy and Paul RYNO / Romney / etc.

If I were a Colorado voter, I’d vote for the Democrat in this race. I mean Bennett.

The airwaves are inundated with R’s and D’s talking about how pro-choice they are and how Gina Grissom believes in fair elections and protecting the right to vote, even though she sicked DoJ on Tina Peters and the feds threw her teenaged daughter to the ground in her yard in her underwear.

I think in fairness they should at least say “This message was brought to you by George Soros...”

Apparent effort to woo late-deciding voters and non-woke democrats. Won’t work. This schmuck is history.

“I’ve been very vocal that I thought he should have done more to keep the violence from heading towards the Capitol," O'Dea said.

Trump offered the National Guard well before the event, but Nazi Pelousy, the Capitol Schutzstaffel fuhrer, and it's honor the mayor both declined. But it was still Trump's fault, something all RINOs agree on.
