"It [2026 Midterms]'s going to be dominated by what party is making you safe and prosperous. It's not going to be dominated by subsidies [Trump's presidential actions]. It's going to be dominated by the big stuff."

“A chunk of [GOP voters] who put them in power in 2024 are Trump-specific voters; they will vote GOP down ballot when Trump is running but won’t turn out to vote for a typical congressman in a midterm when Trump isn’t running.”

"As we have seen, the president’s party almost always loses ground in the midterm election following his victory... [but] if Republicans are to have a serious chance of retaining control of the House, President Trump will have to improve his job approval significantly."

"If legal immigrants begin to be deported without having committed any crime [by Trump admin], get ready for Republicans to lose the [2026] midterms by a landslide."

“The President will help his Republican friends on Capitol Hill get reelected [in 2026 Midterms], and work to pick up new seats across the country.”

"President Trump is the main event for the party [2026 midterms]."

"Republicans have reason to worry that the president’s political decline will affect their performance in next year [2026]’s midterm elections."

“All these people that he [Trump] helps — he doesn’t help everybody — but for those he does, he’s a difference maker, and he’s certainly a turnout machine.”

"Whether congressional GOPers can turn things around for the ‘26 midterms is more dependent on Trump than ever."

“All of the kinds of things [Trump's] doing now will result in him losing—certainly losing the House of Representatives."

"What’s crazy is that the 2026 midterms are entirely in Trump’s control."

"The success or failure of the Grand Old Party (GOP) next year [2026 US Midterms] will be decided on the strength or weakness of President Trump’s coattails."

Will Donald Trump be a Primary Voting Factor in the 2026 U.S. Midterms?

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced Wednesday that the U.S. Mint will begin striking a new $1 coin featuring President Trump's likeness to mark the nation's 250th anniversary. The coin carries a gold-like finish but is composed of non-precious metals.

The coin's front bears Trump's portrait alongside the inscriptions "Liberty," "In God We Trust" and the dates 1776-2026. The reverse depicts the Great Seal of the United States with "250" on the shield and the denomination "ONE DOLLAR."

The coin is being minted in Philadelphia and is expected to be available for sale in rolls and bags in the fall. The Treasury Department said legal research by both the U.S. Mint and Treasury concluded the design complies with federal law.

Federal law generally bars living people's likenesses from appearing on U.S. coinage. The Treasury Department has argued the coin is permissible under the Circulating Collectible Coin Redesign Act of 2020, which allows designs commemorating the U.S. semiquincentennial.

Treasury cited historical precedent, noting President Calvin Coolidge appeared on a 1926 sesquicentennial commemorative half dollar while still in office — the first time a sitting president's likeness appeared on a U.S. coin.

In May, Bessent unveiled a proposed $250 bill featuring Trump's face, though he noted it was a preparatory measure contingent on Congress passing legislation permitting a living president's image on currency. Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., publicly criticized the gold coin announcement.
