President Donald Trump on Tuesday sought to keep his House Republican troops in line even as he expressed concerns about November’s midterm elections and issued a warning to American weapons manufacturers.
“We got to close the deal,” Trump said of an election that will decide control of the House and Senate as he urged his party mates to “just stay together” because “what we’re doing is the right thing for the country.”
He stressed legislative work needed ahead of Election Day, including on immigration, health care and paring down energy prices, offering what has been a loyal GOP Conference a glimpse into his 2026 strategy just days after his administration’s contentious operation to oust and arrest Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro.
