Trump has issued endorsements for more than 300 candidates in the 2026 Republican primary cycle, exceeding prior midterm volumes, with endorsed contenders securing approximately 97 percent of decided races to date across congressional, state legislative, and executive contests. Recent activity includes support for Byron Donalds in the Florida gubernatorial primary and Ashley Moody for U.S. Senate ahead of the August 18 primary, alongside continued involvement in open or competitive races such as the Texas Senate contest. These selections often favor incumbents or aligned challengers, correlating with strong primary performance that traders monitor for signals on future endorsements. Scheduled primaries through the fall and any late-cycle statements could shift positioning in undecided contests.
