Trump's Political Groups Spend Nearly $277 Million in Late Midterm Blitz on Behalf of GOP Candidates
MAGA Inc. and allied groups are spending heavily to aid Republicans in close Senate and House races, with $256 million already spent on ads, AdImpact said.
- President Donald Trump's flagship super PAC, MAGA Inc., has reported spending nearly $277 million on midterm advertising since September, an unprecedented expenditure by a sitting president to bolster Republicans before Election Day.
- Republican groups hold a significant financial advantage fueled by billionaire donors including Elon Musk, Diane Hendricks, Blackstone Group CEO Stephen, and Steve Wynn; MAGA Inc. began September with nearly $416 million in the bank.
- The spending includes major transfers of $200 million to Going Back PAC Inc. and $25 million to Safety and Affordability PAC Inc. "It's more than any president has ever spent, by far, on the midterms," said Corry Bliss, a GOP Senate and House campaign strategist.
- On Saturday, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton kicked off his campaign bus tour in Rockwall, with AdImpact data confirming tens of millions of dollars are supporting his Senate race against Democrat James Talarico.
- Trump stated on Tuesday that he plans to spend over 400 Million Dollars total by Election Day, though analysts note late-cycle advertising forced groups to pay higher rates for limited airtime.
