[b]Glenn Youngkin Pauses His Presidential Ambitions[/b][/h1]
Gov. Glenn Youngkin, the Republican whose surprising election in a blue-trending state set off instant talk of a presidential run, has tapped the brakes on 2024, telling advisers and donors that his sole focus is on Virginias legislative elections in the fall, the [link=https://www.nytimes.com/2023/04/15/us/politics/glenn-youngkin-2024-presidential-run.html]New York Times[/link] reports.
Mr. Youngkin hopes to flip the state legislature to a Republican majority. That could earn him a closer look from rank-and-file Republicans across the country, who so far have been indifferent to the presidential chatter surrounding him in the news media, and among heavyweight donors he would need to keep pace alongside more prominent candidates. He has yet to crack 1 percent in polls about the potential Republican field. -

Yeah. He’s the “Trumpism is over, rebirth of the Republican party after Trump” candidate.

If there was a way to get a Youngkin/Burgum ticket past the wreckage of the republican party, it would make for a competitive election. Some culture war light combined with someone who can read a balance sheet.
