According to Al Jazeera, Asfura was backed by United States President Donald Trump. In a social media post, Asfura said, 'Honduras: I am prepared to govern. I will not fail you.'

Deputy Secretary Christopher Landau also posted on X, 'Congratulations to President-elect Nasry 'Tito' Asfura @titoasfura and the great people of Honduras on a successful and hard-fought election.
