WASHINGTON D.C. — Donald J. Trump endorsed Republican incumbent Monica De La Cruz as she faces Democrat Bobby Pulido in Texas’ competitive 15th Congressional District. The race remains a critical battleground for the influential Hispanic vote in South Texas.
Here is the full post on truthsocial: “Congresswoman Monica De La Cruz is doing an incredible job representing the wonderful people of Texas’ 15th Congressional District! A very successful Small Businesswoman, Monica knows the AMERICA FIRST Policies necessary to Create GREAT Jobs, Unleash Innovation, and Restore American Energy DOMINANCE. Her opponent, Bobby Pulido, is a Radical Left Democrat who is opposed to NO TAX ON TIPS, NO TAX ON OVERTIME, and NO TAX ON SOCIAL SECURITY and, if he and the Dumocrats ever got in, all of these things will be terminated. He wants massive Tax Increases, Open Borders, Men playing in Women’s Sports, and Transgender Mutilization of your Children. Bobby Pulido is Reckless, Radical, and Dangerous! On the other hand, in Congress, Monica is fighting tirelessly to Grow our Economy Cut Taxes and Regulations, Keep our Border SECURE, Champion our Farmers and American Agriculture, Support our Brave Military/Veterans, and Protect our always under siege Second Amendment. Monica De La Cruz has my Complete and Total Endorsement for Re-Election. GET OUT AND VOTE FOR MONICA — SHE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN!

President Trump is the author of The Art of the Deal, Think Like a Billionaire, and Think Big. Analyst and Trump supporter Rod Martin points to The Art of the Deal, Trump's 1987 book, as an explanation of his deal-making philosophy: making big announcements, pivoting often in public statements and, Martin says, ultimately getting what he wanted all along. Critics contend that Trump's books were published decades ago or were aimed at making money, not shedding light. "Generally," Martin said, "critics don't read The Art of the Deal. If they did, they would understand."
