Tom Cotton stirs 2024 speculation with New Hampshire trip to help Republicans

The conservative lawmaker from Arkansas and strong supporter of President Trump doesn’t face a Democratic opponent as he runs for re-election this year, so he’s crisscrossing the country this summer and autumn on behalf of President Trump and down-ballot Republicans who face stiffer challenges in November's general election.

"The stakes of this election, I don’t think could be any higher,” the 43-year old Cotton said in a sit-down interview with Fox News. “What concerns me about the risk of losing the White House and losing the Senate is the radical agenda the Democrats have proposed.”

Cotton packed a lot into his brief trip: He headlined a meet and greet at the president’s New Hampshire re-election headquarters, keynoted the Hillsborough County GOP’s Lincoln-Reagan Dinner – which is a major fundraiser for Republicans in state’s most populous county – and was the main attraction at a fundraiser for retired Gen. Don Bolduc, one of the two Republicans in the running to challenger Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen in the general election.

But the trip to New Hampshire – the state that for a century has held the first primary in the race for the White House -- is sparking more speculation that the veteran Army infantry officer who served in the Afghanistan and Iraq wars may have his own national ambitions in 2024.
