If you saw President Trump’s post about Joe Gruters, here is the answer: the President has endorsed Gruters to keep serving as Chairman of the Republican National Committee, and he wrote that Gruters should return to the job. The post went up on Truth Social on November 6, 2026, at 18:05 UTC. It is the President’s statement of support, not a vote, so it does not by itself decide who leads the RNC.
Did Trump endorse Joe Gruters for RNC chairman?
Yes. The President’s post says Gruters “is running to continue as Chairman of the Republican National Committee.” It closes with the line “Joe has my Complete and Total Endorsement — HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN!” You can read the full post on President Trump’s Truth Social post.
What record does the post give for Gruters?
The post credits Gruters with results in three roles. In the post’s own words:
| Role the post gives Gruters | What the post says he did |
|---|---|
| RNC Chairman | “turned the RNC into an efficient, focused, and powerful machine” |
| Chairman of the Republican Party of Florida | “helped us deliver massive and historic Victories across the State, including my three BIG WINS in 2016, 2020, and 2024” |
| Sarasota County Chairman | “Joe named me Statesman of the Year in both 2012 and 2015” |
The post also says Gruters was Florida chairman “when I won that Great State by the Highest Vote Margin in History, as we then went on to win the 2024 Presidential Election.” It adds that the President was named Statesman of the Year, calling it “The only person to ever win it two times!” These are the President’s own statements about his record. To check any of them, start with the Florida Republican Party’s own records and the RNC’s announcements.
What is still pending?
The post is an endorsement. It calls for Gruters to “return as Chairman of the RNC” and says he will “do an incredible job in 2028.” The Truth Social post does not show a date for the RNC chairman vote. For the date and the result, check the RNC’s website and its official announcements.
Why does an RNC chairman endorsement matter to you?
The post frames the job as the party’s campaign machine. It says Gruters should “continue to build our Party” and help “ensure Free and Fair Elections.” For you, that means who runs the party’s operation going into the next elections.

What should you do next?
- Read the full post and note which claims are about the RNC and which are about the President’s own record.
- Check the RNC’s website for the chairman vote date and result.
- Keep the post separate from any news report that quotes it.
