    Trump Launches RINO Purge Targeting Red State that Betrayed Him

    President Trump is, as he promised, moving to primary and remove the RINOs who betrayed him and MAGA in horrible fashion back in December of 2025, moving to take out the various treacherous politicians in the Indiana state legislature who refused to redistrict and thus help out the GOP by handing it a few safe seats at the expense of Democrats.

    Announcing that he would be targeting those RINOs in a post on his Truth Social social media platform in December, the president said, “Republicans in the Indiana State Senate, who voted against a Majority in the U.S. House of Representatives, should be ashamed of themselves. Headed by a total loser named Rod Bray, every one of these people should be “primaried,” and I will be there to help! Indiana, which I won big, is the only state in the Union to do this!”

    Now, the president is doing so, and has been working through April to remove the Republicans who voted against redistricting in the state. Those are, in alpahabetic order: James Buck (District 21), Spencer Deery (District 23), Dan Dernulc (District 1), Greg Goode (District 38), Travis Holdman (District 19), Rick Niemeyer (District 6), Linda Rogers (District 11), Greg Walker (District 41). Two others also voted against redistricting, but are not running for re-election and so have been mostly ignored.

    So, the president has been endorsing their challengers throughout April. In one such post, for instance, he said, “It is my Great Honor to endorse State Representative Michelle Davis, a REAL Republican running for Indiana’s 41st State Senate District (which I won by 33 points!), against RINO incumbent Greg Walker! Michelle will be a fantastic replacement for Walker who, for whatever reason, voted against Redistricting in Indiana, which puts the United States Congress in jeopardy. Walker and his RINO friends made Indiana, a State I love and have been very good to, the only State in the Country that essentially said they don’t care about what happens in the United States Congress. We could have easily picked up two seats in Indiana, so Walker, an America Last politician, put our Majority in the House of Representatives at risk, thereby putting our Country in a very dangerous position in losing some of the magnificent gains that we have made over the last year, since I assumed the Office of President.”

    Continuing that post, he noted the endorsement was coming because her challenger is a RINO who voted against redistricting, saying, “State Representative Michelle Davis, on the other hand, strongly voted WITH Republicans to pass Redistricting in the State House, unlike “RINO” Greg Walker, who voted with the Democrats in the State Senate to stop it. As your next State Senator, Michelle will fight tirelessly to Protect “Hoosier” Values, Advocate for the Working Men and Women of Indiana, Grow our Economy, Cut Taxes and Regulations, Promote American Manufacturing, Advance MADE IN THE U.S.A., Unleash American Energy DOMINANCE, Keep our Border SECURE, Support our Military, Veterans, and Law Enforcement, Advance Election Integrity, and Defend our always under siege Second Amendment. Michelle Davis has my Complete and Total Endorsement to be the next State Senator from Indiana’s 41st Senate District. Unlike incumbent Greg Walker, a “RINO” LOSER who has failed the fantastic people of Indiana so badly, MICHELLE DAVIS IS A WINNER WHO WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN!”

    Similarly, in another such post targeting a RINO involved in stopping the redistricting, he said, “It is my Great Honor to endorse America First Patriot Tracey Powell, a fantastic Candidate for Indiana’s 21st State Senate District (which I won by 24 points!). Tracey is running against a pathetic RINO incumbent named Jim Buck, who, for whatever reason, voted against Redistricting in Indiana, which puts the United States Congress in jeopardy. Buck and his RINO friends made Indiana, a State I love and have been very good to, the only State in the Country that essentially said they don’t care if Democrats steal Republican House seats to take over the United States Congress. We could have easily picked up two seats in Indiana, helping Democrat seat theft in Blue States, but instead, Buck, an America Last politician, would rather give away our Majority in the House of Representatives, thereby putting our Country in a very dangerous position that could cost us some of the magnificent gains that we have made over the last year, since I assumed the Office of President.”

    He added, “Tracey Powell, on the other hand, is a successful Businessman, Chiropractor, Farmer, and Highly Respected Tipton County Commissioner, who has dedicated his life to serving his Community. As your next State Senator, Tracey will fight tirelessly to Protect “Hoosier” Values, Grow the Economy, Cut Taxes and Regulations, Promote MADE IN THE U.S.A., Champion our Amazing Farmers and Agriculture, Unleash American Energy DOMINANCE, Keep our Border SECURE, Ensure LAW AND ORDER, Support our Military, Veterans, and Law Enforcement, Advance Election Integrity, Defend our always under siege Second Amendment.”

    He concluded, “Tracey Powell has my Complete and Total Endorsement to be the next State Senator from Indiana’s 21st Senate District. Unlike incumbent Jim Buck, a “RINO” who failed the wonderful people of Indiana so badly, TRACEY POWELL IS A WINNER WHO WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN!”

    The president has pushed much the same message for all of the Republicans who are running against the RINOs who betrayed him, and is trying to get them over the hurdle line before the elections in May. Watch Trump comment on getting revenge on the RINOs who have betrayed him here:
