When it comes to former President Donald Trump's political future, Nebraska Congressman Don Bacon is not in line with most of his fellow Republicans.

According to a national Quinnipiac poll, 78% of Republicans think Trump should run for president in 2024 and that’s up from 66% in May.

But during a recent interview with News Channel Nebraska [See our full report above] Bacon made it clear he does not want Trump to run.

It's not clear if Bacon's view will spark a primary challenge from a "Trump 2024" supporter in May.
