The 2018 midterm elections have yet to happen, but President Donald Trump got his first challenger for the 2020 Republican primary over the weekend. It’s someone who’s very popular among conservatives: bestselling author Brad Thor, who is known for his thriller novels.

Thor announced his candidacy in several tweets on Saturday.

“The pages of history do not care if you were a farmer, a soldier, a doctor, or a butcher. They care whether or not, when called, if you rose up to serve. Our Republic cries out for leadership, someone who will respect our Constitutional norms and represent the world’s greatest minority – the individual. That is who I am running for,” Thor told the Daily Caller News Foundation in a statement.
He added that his biggest problem with Trump is that the president is “mentally unfit” for the White House.
