In his testimony before the JAN 6th Committee Rusty Bowers said he would vote for Trump again.
More recently he was quoted by the Arizona Mirror:
Quote:
"After winning praise from liberals for telling Congress how former President Donald Trump tried to intimidate him into illegally overturning the 2020 election in Arizona, House Speaker Rusty Bowers earned their derision for saying that he’d still vote for Trump in 2024.
But now Bowers is backing down from that stance, telling the Deseret News in a new interview that isn’t sure what he would do if faced with Trump as the GOP nominee in 2024.
“I don’t want the choice of having to look at (Trump) again. And if it comes, I’ll be hard pressed,” he told the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints-owned news outlet. “I don’t know what I’ll do. But I’m not inclined to support him.”
