"I’m very, very bullish about the midterms. I know that we are going to win because we have a great record to run on"

"[MAGA voters] will need to show up at the ballot box; President Trump and Republicans are going to make that happen.”

"If this story is properly told, we should win the Midterm Elections in RECORD NUMBERS."

"[Trump voters] won’t turn out to vote for a typical congressman in a midterm when Trump isn’t running."

“If we [GOP] are where we are today in the beginning of the second quarter [of 2026], then I think we’re in for a really rough time in November.”

“If we fail to pass legislation that permanently secures the border, addresses the affordability crisis, improves healthcare, and restores law and order, we [GOP] will lose this majority.”

“Our best shot was the first 6-9 months. And when Republicans likely lose the midterms it will become total and complete political war and gridlock once again.”

"I think we will win them back, probably all of them, maybe more, in this election, and Hakeem Jeffries will be the speaker of the House."

"Next [2026] year when we will take back control of the House of Representatives."

“He’s going to definitely deal with a Democratic House. I think it’s more likely that he’ll be dealing with a Democratic Senate.”

"I want to make sure that women that have gotten married don't have to go out and get additional paperwork to actually go and vote."

"We must pass the SAVE Act. Requiring voter ID is common sense."

Trump's endorsement record in the current primary season has been mixed. His backed candidate Ken Paxton defeated Sen. John Cornyn in Texas, but Rep. Randy Feenstra lost Iowa's gubernatorial primary despite a late Trump endorsement.

The winner of Tuesday's runoff will face Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff, the only Democratic incumbent senator seeking reelection in a state Trump carried in 2024. RealClearPolitics polling averages projected Collins trailing Ossoff by 2.8 points in a general election matchup.
