Arkansas Republican Gov. Asa Hutchinson has teased a 2024 presidential run.

GOP Governor Considering 2024 Presidential Run

On ABC "This Week," Hutchinson told Jonathan Karl, "I do not believe that Donald Trump should be the next president of the United States."

"I think he's had his opportunity there. I think Jan. 6 really disqualifies him for the future. So, we move beyond that, and that's what I want to be focused on."

Hutchinson leaves his gubernatorial seat in Arkansas this week due to term limits.

Newsmax reported:

Hutchinson say he will do "everything I can do to make sure there is the alternative and that Donald Trump is not the nominee of the party."

"That's the first thing, and let's figure out how to do that," Hutchinson added.

He acknowledged that Trump, the only GOP candidate to formally announce intentions for the 2024 race, is the "front runner," considering his name recognition and his time in the White House, but he said he doesn't agree with a proposed rule for the 2024 primary dates requiring candidates to support the party's eventual nominee.

"I think it would be a mistake to do that," Hutchinson said. "It's obvious that you've got a divided party in the sense that you've got a base of loyal Trump supporters, but you've got what to me is even a larger majority of those that say, 'We want to go a different direction.'"
