President Donald Trump endorsed Marty O’Donnell for Nevada’s 3rd Congressional District in an October 26 Truth Social statement, putting an America First candidate at the center of a Southern Nevada House race. The post is an endorsement, not a federal order: it calls on voters to support O’Donnell and sets out the policies Trump says O’Donnell would champion if elected.
What did Trump say about Marty O’Donnell?
In the Truth Social post, Trump wrote: “It is my Great Honor to endorse America First Patriot, Marty O’Donnell.” He said O’Donnell is running to represent Nevada’s 3rd Congressional District against Susie Lee.
Trump described O’Donnell as a “World Class Composer and Entrepreneur” and said O’Donnell would fight for if elected: creating jobs, cutting taxes and regulations, no tax on tips, Made in the U.S.A., American energy dominance, a secure border, law and order, military and veterans, and the Second Amendment. Those are the President’s campaign statements about O’Donnell and the race.
What has this endorsement done?
The post gives O’Donnell Trump’s “Complete and Total Endorsement” and urges voters to support him. It does not order a change in federal law, release funds, alter taxes, or create a new energy policy. The statement itself does not change federal law or policy.
For working families, the immediate stake is electoral: Trump is backing a candidate whose platform, as Trump described it, includes lower taxes and regulations, no tax on tips, domestic production, and energy development.
Why Nevada’s 3rd is part of the America First fight
Trump framed the contest as a choice between O’Donnell’s America First agenda and Lee’s record. His post criticizes Lee on border policy, policing, taxes, rural health care, women’s sports, and the Second Amendment. Those are political claims in the President’s statement, not new federal findings or enacted policy.
Trump has also endorsed candidates in other 2026 races, including trump endorses amir hassan to flip michigan’s 8th and trump endorses john james for michigan governor. In Nevada, the October 26 statement gives O’Donnell Trump’s endorsement.
What happens next?
O’Donnell must still win the race for Nevada’s 3rd Congressional District. Trump’s endorsement is a campaign development; it does not itself seat a representative or enact the agenda listed in the post. Voters will decide whether that America First message earns O’Donnell the seat.
