Rep. Diana Harshbarger, R-Tenn., has endorsed former President Donald Trump and joined his campaign leadership team, she revealed in a statement Sunday night.
“As we face unprecedented challenges that threaten the American way of life, the Biden administration has clearly failed us,” his campaign said. “Our economy is on the brink of recession, and we risk losing an entire generation to drug overdose deaths exacerbated by an open border. Meanwhile, Democrat-run cities and states have allowed lawlessness has become the norm, and corrupt judicial systems have made criminals out of victims.”
He added: “The world is watching as we show weakness and invite conflicts with hostile nations. But there is hope.”
The Republican lawmaker said he wants the US to “return to the conservative values and leadership that once made America great.”

“President Donald J. Trump has a proven track record of delivering results and putting America first,” he also said. “He’s done it before, and he can do it again. As an American who values proven leadership, I’m proud to give my full and full endorsement to President Trump. I urge my fellow East Tennesseans to join me in supporting to him as we work to make America the greatest nation the world has ever known again.”
Harshbarger was elected to a second term in the House of Representatives on Nov. 2022, when he defeated Democrat candidate Cameron Parsons. He won the contest by a landslide garnering 78.3% of the vote.

Trump endorsed her in the 2022 contest, calling her a “tireless advocate for the People of Tennessee.”
“Congresswoman Diana Harshbarger is doing an amazing job as Congresswoman from Tennessees 1st Congressional District. She is fighting in Congress for Strong Borders, Secure Elections, the Second Amendment, and our incredible Vets and Military, ” former president Trump said in September 2021.

Last month, Harshbarger defended Trump amid a lawsuit from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
“The ongoing political prosecution of President Trump has nothing to do with justice, and everything to do with political motivation,” Harshbarger said. “The Soros-backed indictment of DA Alvin Bragg is just one more example of how corrupt our justice system is. Our government is being used as a weapon against us, and I look forward to bringing Bragg before Congress to testify.”
