On Wednesday, August 27th, 2026, President Donald Trump urged Americans to cast their votes in the upcoming November midterm elections as if he were "on the ballot." Speaking to Fox News’s Trey Gowdy, Trump stated, "I see it all the time, that when Trump’s on the ballot, they win. When he’s out of the ballot, the people don’t go to vote."

The president's remarks highlight his belief in his continued influence over Republican voter turnout and election outcomes. This message comes as the midterms approach, with Trump encouraging his supporters to participate actively.
