Rep. Bob Good, chair of the House Freedom Caucus, is facing a tight primary against challenger John McGuire. Good's campaign confirmed he will travel to New York to support Donald Trump, a move seen as crucial given his previous endorsement of Ron DeSantis, which has caused friction within the Trump campaign. Meanwhile, McGuire has been actively aligning himself with Trump, even riding in the former president's motorcade to his trial. Both candidates are vying to demonstrate their loyalty to Trump ahead of the June primary in Virginia's 5th District. The rivalry has led to both accusing each other of being 'Republicans in name only' (RINOs). The two had a civil conversation in New York, where Good accused McGuire of avoiding a debate with him. Members of the House Freedom Caucus, including Ralph Norman and Warren Davidson, met with Trump for about 30 minutes today.

👀 I bet Rep. Bob Good (R-Va.) is not going to like this: His primary challenger, John McGuire, just rode with Donald Trump in his motorcade to the former president's trial, a person with direct knowledge tells me. Good, chair of the House Freedom Caucus, is also up in New York…

HFC Chair Bob Good's campaign officially confirms to me he will head to New York tomorrow to support Trump. This was expected, but members have been tight lipped. Good is facing a tight primary after past DeSantis support and friction with Trump campaign. This could help him.
