He also called Britt "a  star," adding that "the contrast between her and Biden is staggering":

No idea how many are watching her from her Alabama kitchen right now, but the contrast between her and Biden is staggering. She’s half his age, ten times the communicator. She’s killing it.

One X user, pointing to the future, called this "growing the congregation": 

The last line reads: "That’s how we win in 2024."

If you aren't able to read former President Donald Trump's post from Truth Social, it says:
