President Donald Trump speaks with reporters before departing on Marine One from the South Lawn of the White House, Friday, March 20, 2026, in Washington, as Secretary of State Marco Rubio listens. Two sources familiar with the matter said that Johnson made a strong case to the White House to support Hurd, who represents a competitive district that Trump won by about 10 points in 2024. Calling on Hurd to “correct his naive voting record and support President Trump,” she vowed to run again in 2028 if indeed Hurd wins this fall and fails to do so. After losing Trump’s endorsement, Hurd told CNN’s Manu Raju manufacturers and agricultural producers in his district were “absolutely” hurting from tariffs, and their concerns weighed on his vote. It’s the people back in Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District,” Hurd said at the time.
