GOP consultant Alex Bruesewitz can count on congressional endorsements from a slate of MAGA voices in the House if he runs for the seat of retiring Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-WI).
But the Republican also has allies close to House GOP leadership, at least one of whom has offered to fundraise on his behalf.
Bruesewitz, a Wisconsin native who moved to Florida in 2019, has spent his political career attempting to “reshape the Republican Party in the name and the image of President Trump.” He’s emerged as a vocal defender of the former president on X and has advised a crop of House lawmakers in his orbit.
So when Bruesewitz threatened to primary Gallagher over his decision not to impeach Alejandro Mayorkas, the president’s border chief, it was not surprising that he found early backing from the MAGA base.
