President Donald Trump lent his support to Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt, who is the GOP nominee for one of Missouri’s U.S. Senate seats, in a special video message shared exclusively with RSBN this week.
“Hello everyone, this is your favorite president of all time, more so than Washington, or Lincoln, or anyone – Donald Trump,” Trump quipped. “At least I hope that’s so! But I’m with you today to talk about something very important. And that’s Eric Schmitt – he’s a fantastic attorney general; the job he’s done is incredible.”
In August, Schmitt won the GOP nomination for the Missouri Senate race, edging out a field of Republican competitors. As previously reported by RSBN, Trump endorsed two candidates in the Senate ahead of that primary race by issuing an ambiguous endorsement: “I trust the Great People of Missouri, on this one, to make up their own minds, much as they did when they gave me landslide victories in the 2016 and 2020 Elections, and I am therefore proud to announce that ERIC has my Complete and Total Endorsement!”
To clarify, both Attorney General Eric Schmitt and former Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens faced off against each other in the Senate primary.
Continuing his glowing remarks about Schmitt, Trump said, “He’s for protecting your state – and that is a great state.”
“Missouri. I won it twice, and I love it, and we’ll always be with you,” the 45th president added. “But Eric wants to protect your border, he wants to lower your taxes, he wants to do all of the things that you have to have done. And number one, he wants to protect you from crime, and also from inflation, which is destroying our country.”
He continued, “We have come so far down over the last two years, nobody’s seen anything like it…now you have Russia-Ukraine, which would have never happened. You have Taiwan, that’ll be next.”
Trump also touched on the destruction of American energy independence and the Biden-led disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, drawing a comparison between the glory years of America First policies and today’s devastating politics.
“What a disaster,” Trump remarked of the rising crime and chaos in America today.
“Eric will NEVER ALLOW these things to happen,” Trump concluded. “He’ll fight for you, and he’ll fight hard. I’ve been with him for a long time. I’ve known him for a long time, and he’s a great guy for a great state. Vote for Eric Schmitt. As you know, he has my complete and total endorsement. Thank you.”
He’s getting my vote November 8.
I have intended to vote for him since the primary.
Same here but I do worry about one thing. Heard a neighbor say he registered to vote for the first time in his life at 60 years old. Everyone he knows is doing the same. He’s on disability and I’ve heard him say F republicans before because “they always want to take away benefits”. The reason he and others are registering? Marijuana legalization is on the ballot.
I’m not terribly worried about the vote in Missouri. The red tsunami is going to drown those lackwits’ votes out.
The potheads will be coming in from the fields, down from the hills and up from the hollers to vote for Prop 3. Hopefully inspite of this we can crush the Demwits.
Maybe you can’t give out water to people waiting to vote, but nothing says you cannot cast a line with a bag of Doritos on the hook to reel in any potheads there.
