Donald Trump, the 45th and 47th president of the United States, claimed on Truth Social that his political endorsements are stronger than ever, asserting that candidates he backed are winning at an unmatched rate.

Trump framed the post as a record of his endorsement success and cast the losses among his picks as acts of loyalty rather than failures. He offered no vote totals or candidate names in the message itself.

Here is the full post on truthsocial: “My Endorsements are stronger than ever — Not to mention the fact that good people are getting elected that never had the chance! Here is an accurate list of the last number of seasons. There has never been anything close! It is an Honor that I take very seriously. The few that lost were done out of loyalty. It was almost impossible for them to win but, I felt obligated to go with them because they were, in my opinion, good people! Trump” on August 24, 2026 at 9:09 AM ET.

This is Trump’s 5th message released today, and the last post was 27 minutes ago, and it is not part of a thread. On average, Trump produces 18 posts per day since his inauguration on January 20, 2025. The move fits a broader pattern in Trump’s recent messaging, with 182 of his 588 posts over the last 30 days classified as Elections posts.

Trump won reelection in the 2024 presidential election and returned to office as the 47th president. He frequently uses truthsocial to highlight his political influence and the results of his candidate endorsements.
