I love my family. And I love this country,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019ll tell you what, speaking at a rally for a guy like me that grew up in Toledo, Ohio. I got eagle bumps. We don\u2019t get we don\u2019t get goose bumps here. If you\u2019re at a Trump rally, you get eagle bumps.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump announced his endorsement of Majewski in a statement over the summer, writing that Majewski \u201cwill be a fantastic Congressman for the incredible people of Ohio\u2019s 9th Congressional District.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJ.R. bravely served in the U.S. Air Force and has spent 20 years working in the nuclear energy industry,\u201d Trump said. \u201cIn Congress, J.R. will always Promote American Energy, Secure the Border, Support our Farmers, Protect Life, Defend the Second Amendment, Fight for Election Integrity, and Provide our Veterans with the Care they Deserve.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJ.R.\u2019s opponent, Marcy Kaptur, has been in Congress for nearly four decades, is not at all a respected Member, and is fully controlled by Nancy Pelosi and the Radical Left,\u201d the statement concluded. \u201cShe wants to stay there forever and do nothing.
