As you all know Trump announced his 2024 run for president on Tuesday night with an official filing to the FCC and a big announcement at Mar-a-Lago.
Today we are learning who might be his first contender in the Republican Primary:
JUST IN: AR Gov. @AsaHutchinson tells @CNN he's "absolutely" a GOP alternative to Trump in 2024: "We know the chaos that comes with him. And that's really not the kind of leadership that's good for America and really the future of our party." pic.twitter.com/lUihRo4d7S

That’s right it’s Asa Hutchinson, who said he’ll make a decision in January but he is absolutely considering it.
From the sound of his optimism, my guess is that he’s running.
But I can’t see him going all that far. He’s going to be more like a Jeb Bush style candidate that Trump will chew up and spit out. He just doesn’t have the popularity that is needed to beat Trump.
I think there is only one man who could possibly beat Trump and it sure isn’t Asa Hutchinson.
