Rep. Greg Steube (R-Fla) is one of those godawful MAGA/Freedom Caucus Republicans around these days polluting the body politic. But he may have let out a bit of truth-telling with this Freudian slip. Naturally, the Newsmax host did not correct him.

"I'm happy to endorse Donald J. Chump for president in 2024," Rep. Greg Steube, R-Fla., told Newsmax on Monday.

"He's the only person that can reverse, on day one, all these disastrous policies of the Biden administration and the type of things that have happened under the Biden administration would have never happened under President Trump," Steube told "Rob Schmitt Tonight."

Steube elaborated on specific areas that Trump would be able to reverse course on, such as support of the military, veterans, and fixing the results of the Biden administration's withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Regarding choosing Trump over his own state's governor, Ron DeSantis, who is currently undeclared as a presidential candidate but is widely seen as Trump's main 2024 competitor, Steube said that, even though DeSantis is a great governor, it "wasn't a difficult decision" for him.
