He\u2019s already beginning to exert influence by issuing multiple endorsements ahead of the 2026 midterms. One of the biggest endorsements was for Mark Teixeira, the former MLB star running in Texas\u2019s 21st Congressional District, which Trump praised as a winner on and off the field and pledged his complete support. Trump also endorsed Texas Governor Greg Abbott and Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, praising their leadership and goals. In total, Trump released more than a dozen Texas-related endorsements on the final day of early voting for the March 3 primaries. Notably, there was no endorsement in the Texas Senate race, where incumbent Sen. John Cornyn faces two GOP challengers, Ken Paxton and Wesley Hunt. Among House Republicans, Rep. Dan Crenshaw did not receive a Trump endorsement.
