Trump Has the Money to Fight Off ‘Two Years of Bullsh*t from the Two Brain Cells Crowd’

President Donald Trump is preparing to play a direct and significant role in the 2026 midterm elections, with plans to deploy an unprecedented level of political and financial support to defend and expand Republican majorities in the House and Senate.

The effort marks a shift from his past midterm strategies and signals his intent to solidify legislative power for the second half of his final term in office.

According to The Associated Press, Trump’s political operation has raised more than $600 million since November, with officials from his team expressing confidence that the figure could exceed $1 billion by the time Americans head to the polls next November.

Fundraising efforts have continued despite Trump being constitutionally barred from seeking a third term, indicating strong support from his base and widespread interest in his America First agenda.

Unlike the 2018 and 2022 midterm cycles, when Trump largely focused on endorsements and rallies over financial investment, Republican strategists now say the president is prepared to spend aggressively.

In 2022, his super PAC, Make America Great Again Inc., spent $19 million on congressional races—far less than the $260 million and $290 million spent by the GOP’s official House and Senate campaign arms, respectively.

Three senior Republican operatives familiar with Trump’s 2026 planning told the Washington Examiner that Trump intends to significantly increase funding to protect Republican control of the House and Senate.

One source noted that Trump views holding the House as critical to shielding his administration from a barrage of potential Democrat-led investigations.

“The president has a real simple choice here. Spend the money and hold the House or face two years of bulls*** from the two brain cells crowd,” said one former Trump campaign aide.

Another Republican strategist described the 2026 midterms as central to Trump’s legacy-building effort.

“Trump has an opportunity here to make the second half of his term have some real weight; he’s got a chance to set himself up as a real kingmaker going forward,” the source stated.

During a recent appearance on NBC’s Meet the Press, Trump confirmed that he intends to “be very active” in the 2026 elections.

His administration has already launched initial steps in support of congressional Republicans, including a $10 million national advertising campaign led by Securing American Greatness, a nonprofit run by Trump’s 2024 campaign manager, Chris LaCivita.

The ads highlight Trump’s tax proposals and praise Republican lawmakers aligned with the White House.

In addition, Trump has issued endorsements to several swing-district GOP incumbents in an effort to avoid divisive primary challenges.

To further ensure alignment between his administration and the party, Trump appointed Vice President JD Vance as the Republican National Committee’s National Finance Chair, signaling tighter integration between the RNC and the White House.

“The RNC is working hand-in-hand with President Trump and his administration to grow Republican majorities and win big in 2026,” RNC national press secretary Kiersten Pels said.

“With Vice President Vance serving as RNC Finance Chair, we’re building the war chest and securing our elections to achieve decisive victories in the midterms. Our goal is simple: give President Trump the full four years he needs to deliver his agenda and Make America Great Again.”

However, not all Republicans are fully aligned on strategy.

Some longtime party strategists have expressed concerns that Trump may divert resources toward primary challenges against GOP incumbents who resist his legislative agenda.

Most recently, the president targeted Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) with a threat to back a primary challenger.

“In the grand scheme of things, a couple million spent on a race against a difficult Republican might not seem like a ton of money,” one strategist warned, “but I just want him to be smart about this. What’s easier? Having to woo over Thomas Massie or dealing with a swing-district Democrat who won because their opponent didn’t get the help they needed?”

Democrats, meanwhile, are already preparing for the possibility of regaining House control.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) and others have floated investigations into a $400 million Boeing 747 reportedly gifted to the Trump administration by Qatar, as well as into the Department of Government Efficiency, despite Elon Musk’s planned return to the private sector.

Some Democrats have also raised concerns about market impacts tied to Trump’s tariff policies.

Two House Democrats have already introduced articles of impeachment against the president, underscoring the stakes for the 2026 midterms.

Trump’s team is now focused on building the financial and strategic infrastructure to prevent any erosion of Republican power in Congress as the cycle begins to accelerate.
