Asa Hutchinson announces White House run, calls on Trump to drop out | Works24

Former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson announced his candidacy for president in what is an already crowded field amongst GOP hopefuls.

Hutchinson has long been considering a presidential bid, making a visit to the key first-in-the-nation caucus state of Iowa in late March.

“I hear people talk about the leadership of our country, and I’m convinced that people want leaders that appeal to the best of America, and not simply appeal to our worst instincts.” Hutchinson continued. “And that inspires me when I see everyday Americans just saying: Give us good leadership, give us common sense, consistent conservatism and optimism about our great country.”

Hutchinson is one of former President Donald Trump’s most vocal critics in the GOP presidential field. Prior to when Trump’s indictment became public, Hutchinson told USA TODAY that the former president should drop out of the presidential race if he were to be indicted.
