2024 Watch: Youngkin ‘testing the waters’ at major donor retreat
Fox News
Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin of Virginia gathered with top donors on Thursday and Friday as the rising GOP star mulls a potential 2024 White House bid
An attendee at what was dubbed the "Red Vest Retreat," which refers to the red fleece vests that the governor often wears, said that Youngkin was repeatedly questioned about a potential 2024 GOP presidential nomination bid. The attendee, who asked to remain anonymous to speak more freely, told Fox News the governor reiterated that he’s focused right now on helping fellow Republicans in this year’s elections, on his 2023 agenda for Virginia, and on flipping the state Senate from blue to red in next year’s elections in Virginia.
But according to the attendee, Youngkin also emphasized the political walk he’s taking, and that while he was not sure where that walk is going to lead, the governor asked the donors to stay with him on his trek.
