President Donald Trump threatened on Tuesday that he would not support Republicans who refuse to go along with his election scheme during the 2026 midterm.
One of the ways Trump is seeking to sway the 2026 midterm in his favor is by pressuring state legislatures to undergo mid-cycle redistricting, which allows them to redraw their congressional maps. The Texas legislature was the first to redraw its maps, which sparked backlash from Democratic-controlled states like California and Maryland.
Recently, Indiana Republicans announced that they would take up the redistricting issue during their next session. The announcement comes about a month after the state legislature failed to pass a new election map because some Republicans did not vote for the measure.
Trump responded to the news in a new Truth Social post.
“I am glad to hear the Indiana House is stepping up to do the right thing, and I hope the Senate finds the Votes. If they do, I will make sure that all of those people supporting me win their Primaries, and go on to Greatness but if they don’t, I will partner with the incredibly powerful MAGA Grassroots Republicans to elect STRONG Republicans who are ready to do what is needed to protect our Country and, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
