In a move that signals a continued escalation of his long-standing feud with New York Attorney General Letitia James, former President Donald Trump has publicly endorsed a Republican challenger aiming to unseat James in the 2024 election. The endorsement of Joe Conway, a former NYPD detective and current Republican candidate, marks the latest development in Trump's ongoing battle against James, who has been investigating the former President's business dealings and has accused him of engaging in widespread mortgage fraud. Trump has repeatedly clashed with James, and his support for Conway is seen as an attempt to undermine her authority and influence the outcome of the election. As James continues to probe Trump's business empire, the former President's backing of Conway raises questions about the potential for further politicization of the investigation.
