post on Truth Social - “ Great news for North Carolina! Michael Whatley, one of the most capable executives in our Country, who successfully ran, along with Lara Trump, the Republican National Committee, has launched his run for the United States Senate!

Michael is fantastic at everything he does, and was certainly a STAR as Co-Chair of the RNC where, in the Presidential Election, we won every Swing State, the Popular Vote, and the Electoral College by a landslide. He also helped us win North Carolina six times, including Primaries, in 2016, 2020, and 2024! Michael is a wonderful man, has ALWAYS delivered for North Carolina, especially after the terrible floods, where the Biden Administration did nothing, and will continue doing so as your next U.S. Senator, where he will fight tirelessly to Grow our Economy, Cut Taxes and Regulations, Promote MADE IN THE U.S.A., Champion American Energy DOMINANCE, Help Secure our already Secure Southern Border, Stop Migrant Crime, Murderers, and other Criminals from illegally entering our Country, Strengthen our Military/Veterans, and Protect our always under siege Second Amendment.

Michael Whatley has my Complete and Total Endorsement – HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN! “
