Donald Trump says "My Endorsements are stronger than ever"
“My Endorsements are stronger than ever — Not to mention the fact that good people are getting elected who never had the chance!”
Reported August 24, 2026 by independent.co.uk. Checked word for word against that report.
Donald Trump recently asserted the strength of his political endorsements, claiming a 97% success rate for his chosen candidates in congressional, Senate, and gubernatorial races. This statement comes as midterm elections approach and follows instances where his backing influenced primary outcomes. For example, in Alabama, Trump's endorsed candidate, U.S. Rep. Barry Moore, won a Senate primary against an outsider challenger. In Georgia, a Trump-backed candidate secured the Republican nomination for secretary of state, a position previously held by an official who opposed Trump's election fraud claims. These endorsements are seen as significant in Republican politics, particularly for candidates aligning with Trump's "America First" agenda.
