Trump's Call for Primary Challenge Against Chip Roy Comes Too Late

Despite Trump's Call, Conservative Rep. Chip Roy Set to Run Unopposed in Republican Primary

Former President Donald Trump has called for a primary challenge against Republican Texas Rep. Chip Roy due to Roy's support for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' presidential bid.
Trump's call comes a week after the deadline to file for candidacy in a primary against Roy, making the challenge impossible for the upcoming election.
Rep. Chip Roy is a member of the conservative House Freedom Caucus and has a strong conservative voting record.
Roy was the first member of Congress to endorse DeSantis for president and has been campaigning for him in Iowa.
Despite Trump's call for a primary challenge, Roy is set to run unopposed in the Republican primary for Texas' 21st Congressional District.
