Trump Lays Up the Wins, Teases a Trump Dividend,

President Donald J. Trump, the Commander-in-Chief, was absolutely in command as he took the stage at the American Airlines Center to cap off the first day of the 2026 Republican midterm conference in Dallas, Texas. Trump was jovial, and appeared rested and in great spirits as singer Lee Greenwood launched him to the signature anthem, “God Bless the USA.” At the end of the track, the viewers broke into chants of “USA,” as Trump and Greenwood greeted each other.

This conference was Trump’s brainchild, and the first in historical past for a national political social gathering. Its intention is to energize voters forward of the November 3 midterm elections, where the Republican majority for the House and the Senate hangs in the steadiness.

Trump greeted the crowd with enthusiasm, thanking them. “And pals, distinguished visitors, Vice President Vance, and the proud residents of the United States of America, welcome to the first ever midterm conference of any social gathering!”

Trump talked about how, “it took a little imagination to think of it, but we thought of it. I’m sure it will become a staple in years to come.”

It would not be a Trump speech without him mentioning and ribbing the faux news. Trump teased, “You have to remember, when we originally announced this eight weeks ago, they said, ‘Who’s going to come to a midterm convention?’ This place is packed.”

Trump also talked about the many people – offsite – standing exterior watching the conference on a big screen.

Trump then delved into what was at stake.

In 55 days Americans shall be going to the polls in one of the most important elections in our nation’s historical past. Your vote will resolve whether or not our nation stumbles at the beginning gate of the next 250 years, or surges ahead and never, ever appears back. If we hand America’s future to the radical Left Democrats and our nation will spend the next decade just getting back on its toes, it is going to be a tragedy. Vote Republican and we’ll depart the world in our mud for generations to come. There shall be nothing prefer it. We’re proper at that gate.

When the viewers again broke out into chants of “USA,” Trump thanked them and continued.

The alternative in this election could be very, very simple: Democrats are asking you to vote for their failed, far-Left agenda, it is never labored. That destroyed your funds and delivered you 4 years of catastrophe, bedlam, and death under Sleepy Joe Biden. And I’m asking you to allow us to end the job we started with the biggest two years in the historical past of the presidency.  

This has been the most profitable two years, financially and in every means in the historical past of the presidency. And together we’ll flip a two-year comeback into a 250-year lead. 

Trump talked about the nation’s super turnaround economically and on the world stage, then said to the crowd: “I want you to remember when this country is rocketing: I’m the one that got it started!”

Someone in the crowd yelled, “Trump 2028!”

After Trump gave honor to his stalwart supporters who have adopted him since 2016, he moved into the midterms, and the standard knowledge in Washington that the social gathering in energy always loses big in the midterms. 

We’ve acquired one thing so good. We cannot let that string be damaged. We’re going to change that. There’s no purpose for it. There’s no purpose for it. So, I’m asking you to faux that I’m on the poll, just one more time. Because if we lose we’re going to lose the border, you are going to lose your tax cuts, you are going to lose your security and security. You’re going to lose your wealth. Our nation goes through hell, you’ll be going through hell just such as you did just two years in the past, we went through hell. We have been a laughingstock all over the world.

Trump made a call for a united entrance and a dedication to not see that occur again.

In this election, all that issues is that we’re united, we’re together, and what we are saying, counts. That’s all that issues. And on November 3, the great American majority goes to stand up and continue to Make America Great Again. The midterms will not be supposed to be gained by the sitting president, and we’re going to change that.

Trump dedicated to marketing campaign for 35 House of Representatives and Senate races, and said that he would go to some states more than once. 

We actually have 35 races that are, I suppose you’d call, “the swings.” Like we had seven swing states, and we gained all seven. We’re campaigning to make it unimaginable. 

Trump said some of the marketing campaign stops could be rallies in big arenas, and deliberate to tout the Republican insurance policies that are common sense. 

“It’s really about common sense more than anything else,” Trump said. 

Trump turned his focus to TX Attorney General and nominee for U.S. Senate, Ken Paxton. Trump claimed that he would come to Texas as many instances as he may in order to see Paxton elected to the Senate seat.

I’m going to go to every one of them, about 35, in a couple of circumstances I’ll go twice, and I’ll do tele-town halls, and I’ll come back to Texas because we’ve got to elect Ken Paxton. 

The viewers cheered uproariously. Trump declared, “He’s the greatest attorney general in America and he deserves to be your next senator!”

But the meat of the speech, and what the president selected to emphasize, have been his great successes achieved during the first two years of his second time period. Namely, border numbers, crime numbers, and the common sense insurance policies which have helped the American people to prosper.

Together, we’re going to continue to have, we’ve got the strongest borders. We have to continue low taxes, I gave you the greatest tax lower in the historical past of our nation, and no crime.

We may have power dominance, we’ll stand with our heroes in the navy. We take care of our veterans, our great police and law enforcement: we love our police and law enforcement.

The president gave props to Texas’ sitting GOP senators – Ted Cruz and John Cornyn – for serving to to get the wall constructed, then introduced the gorgeous numbers: “Zero illegal aliens have entered our Southern border in the last 15 months. ZERO.”

The crowd cheered and went into another spherical of “USA” chants.

Trump declared, “We’re also out here to have a little bit of fun!” And went on a riff of how he got here up with, “Dumocrats, because their policies are so bad.”

Men taking part in in ladies’s sports activities is one of those unhealthy insurance policies on which the Democrats seem to be doubling down. Trump said, “They say it’s an 80/20 issue, I say it’s a 99 to 1, and I have no idea who the one is.”

Trump laid out the distinction of open borders, highlighting that under his administration, “we have the lowest level of illegal immigration ever recorded in our country. ZERO illegal immigrants have entered your border.”

Trump even declared on the Iran battle that: 

We’re successful it. We control the Hormuz Strait. I believe we should always call it “The Trump Strait,” I ought to get one thing out of this! We ought to call it The Trump Strait and I’m sure the Iranian management shall be thrilled with it. They’ve been the bully of the Middle East for 50 years, now they cannot bully anybody anymore.

On the financial system, Trump said: “Right now, in the United States of America we’ve got more people working than we ever have before, by A LOT.”

Trump then gave a shoutout to House Speaker Mike Johnson (LA-04), who Trump said would go down as the biggest Speaker of the House. When Trump moved to pay respect to Sen. John Thune (R-SD), the viewers booed. Trump tried to calm them a bit, and said Thune is “working hard.”

Trump once again talked about the One Big Beautiful Law with its No Tax on Tips, No Tax on Overtime, and No Tax on Social Security, saving American households 1000’s of {dollars}, and returning it back to their pockets. Trump talked about the manufacturing renaissance occurring in the nation, with car producers bringing manufacturing back to the U.S. 

“It’s the Golden Age of the Automobile Business,” Trump said.

Trump adopted with a dialogue of the Golden Age of Energy, as he touted the Venezuela deal of 65 billion barrels of oil, the money being pulled in thanks to tariffs, and the tax-free White House ballroom being constructed. Trump also promoted the Trump Accounts and prescription drug reductions through Trump Rx.

Trump joked about his potential to weave in and out of topics, but declared that if the weave did not get back to the main level, he was performed. 

The president did weave back to the financial system, and made this gorgeous promise: Should the Republicans regain the Senate and the House of Representatives, he would give every American citizen what he called the “Trump Dividend.”

What we’re doing, because we’re doing so nicely, and because our nation is making so a lot money. Here is my promise: If the Republicans win the Senate and the House of Representatives, both of them. Because of our super strength and success economically, I’ll issue a dividend to every citizen of the United States of America for 5,000 {dollars}. Very very like a profitable company will do a money distribution to its shareholders. Or last 12 months when I gave our great navy $1776 {dollars}. 

This is assured to make Democrats head explode. Trump proclaimed that the Democrats wouldn’t have the ability to do it because, “all they know is poverty and how to ruin the country.”

Trump detailed the sins of the former NC Gov. Roy Cooper, who is the Democrat vying for retiring Republican Thom Tillis’ Senate seat. From the lax legal guidelines which allowed the killer of Iryna Zarutska to be launched a number of instances, to his horrific handling of Hurricane Helene, Cooper would love North Carolinians to neglect, but Trump proclaimed this file must not be forgotten. Trump gave a shoutout to Republican candidate for NC Senate Michael Whatley, and inspired North Carolinians to vote for him in November.  

The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) have been next in Trump’s crosshairs. Trump declared that “they’re crazy,” and have skipped over socialism to go straight to communism. Trump called out TX Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico, MI Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, FL Senate candidate Angie Nixon, and other DSA and DSA-adjacent candidates operating, highlighting the injury they wished to enact on the nation, and their said hatred for America.

Trump’s most pointed proclamation said it all:

Our social gathering is actually based on a factor called common sense, it is all common sense[…] On election evening, we’re going to show that America does not belong to those who hate it. America belongs to those who find it irresistible.

Editor’s Note: The 2026 Midterms will decide the destiny of President Trump’s America First agenda. Republicans must keep control of both chambers of Congress.
