Trump Begins 32-Day Midterm Blitz in Texas and Oklahoma
Trump opens a 32-day campaign push to lift Republican turnout and defend congressional majorities as some GOP candidates face tighter races.
- President Donald Trump has begun a 32-day campaign tour in Texas and Oklahoma aimed at supporting Republican candidates before the November 2026 midterm elections, with the GOP seeking to retain its narrow congressional majorities.
- In Texas, Trump is campaigning alongside Republican Senate candidate Ken Paxton, whom he previously backed in the party primary against incumbent Senator John Cornyn.
- Trump is also promoting his trade and tariff policies during a visit to Peterbilt Motors, while rising gasoline and diesel prices are emerging as a challenge to his economic message.
- Some Republican candidates have welcomed Trump’s campaign appearances, while others in competitive races have distanced themselves from him over issues including the Iran war and large electricity-consuming data centers.
- The Oklahoma rally is part of a strategy focused on strengthening Republican turnout in traditionally conservative states, with Trump expected to continue campaigning in other Republican-leaning states such as Alabama.
