January 1, Trump Rallies Texas Faithful to Back Paxton Senate Bid

Wyatt’s Take

• President Trump took his message straight to the heart of Texas and reminded voters why conservative leadership still matters in the Senate.
• Local GOP candidates got a powerful lift as the former president urged every patriot to back Attorney General Ken Paxton for the U.S. Senate.
• The rally showed working families that their voices still count when they stand against Washington insiders and open-border policies.

President Donald Trump delivered a fiery campaign speech at the Freeman Coliseum in San Antonio, Texas, taking the stage to boost local Republican candidates and bolster Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s push for the U.S. Senate ahead of the upcoming midterm elections.

Trump wasted no time laying out the stakes for Texas families.

Off to Texas with President Trump.

Wyatt Matters

Heartland voters understand that elections have consequences and that sending proven conservatives to Washington protects their jobs, their families, and their way of life.
