Trump says he will spend $400 million to $500 million from his super PAC on midterm elections

Trump said MAGA Inc. will spend $400 million to $500 million to boost Republican candidates as party leaders press for more help in competitive races.

  • On Saturday, the pro-Trump super PAC MAGA Inc. filed a report with the Federal Election Commission detailing a $10 million advertising campaign supporting Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in his U.S. Senate race.
  • This initial major general election investment reflects the competitiveness of a once-safe Texas Republican seat now contested by 37-year-old Democratic state representative James Talarico, who has dominated airwaves throughout the summer.
  • Talarico raised $68 million through June compared to Paxton's $9 million, prompting ads labeling the Democrat "High Tax Talarico," a characterization campaign spokesperson JT Ennis rejected as lies.
  • The Elon Musk-funded America PAC reported spending $2.4 million to support Paxton, while Lone Star Liberty PAC launched a $15 million advertising effort this week to bolster the Republican nominee.
  • Republicans in battleground states have pressured President Donald Trump to deploy his $400 million war chest, though his political operation previously sought to temper impatience regarding the spending timeline.
