Trump Returns to Texas for a High-Stakes Push to Keep the State in Republican Hands

  • On Tuesday, President Donald Trump visits Texas for back-to-back rallies in Corpus Christi and Lubbock, marking his fourth trip to the state in recent weeks to boost Republican Senate candidate Ken Paxton.
  • Paxton faces Democrat James Talarico in a competitive race as Republicans defend a 32-year winning streak in the Lone Star State. Talarico has capitalized on Paxton's known ethical and legal problems.
  • Corpus Christi sits in the state's 34th Congressional District, a competitive House race where Republicans seek to retain Hispanic voters during the campaign's final stretch.
  • Vice President JD Vance, a potential 2028 successor, is campaigning in Michigan with stops planned in Montana, Kansas, and Howell today as part of the broader Republican effort.
  • Election Day arrives in one week as Republican leaders fight to defend their national winning streak. Both Trump and Vance have made numerous trips this month to boost party candidates in key battlegrounds.
