Congratulations to Indiana State Senator Chris Garten, who I was proud to ENDORSE, on being unanimously voted by his colleagues to be the next Senate President Pro Tempore for the State Senate of Indiana! This finishes off my working against Political Leaders in the State Senate who let our Country down. If they did what they should have done, and what every other State did, as requested, we would have had two more seats in the House of Representatives! Chris led this effort for me, along with Trevor De Vries, Brian Schmutzler, Blake Fiechter, Tracey Powell, Paula Copenhaver, and Michelle Davis, who all beat their Opponents. Thank you also to Brenda Wilson. She’ll be back next time where there won’t be two Candidates running with the exact same name, a dirty trick! Rod Bray should resign from Office because he has no chance of winning. Indiana was the only State this happened with, and I won it six times, in LANDSLIDES, including with the Highest Vote in the History of the State. Remember, Bray was responsible for us not having TWO additional Seats, for the Republican Party, in the House of Representatives. The Indiana State Senate is in good hands with Chris Garten — HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN! President DONALD J. TRUMP

祝贺印第安纳州参议员克里斯·加滕(我很自豪地支持他)被他的同事一致投票成为印第安纳州参议院下一任临时议长!我反对州参议院政治领袖的工作到此结束,他们让我们的国家失望了。如果他们按照要求做了他们应该做的事情,以及其他每个州所做的事情,我们就会在众议院多拥有两个席位!克里斯为我领导了这项工作,还有特雷弗·德弗里斯、布莱恩·施穆茨勒、布莱克·费希特、特雷西·鲍威尔、保拉·科本哈弗和米歇尔·戴维斯,他们都击败了他们的对手。还要感谢布伦达·威尔逊。下次她会回来,不会有两个候选人以完全相同的名字竞选,这是一个肮脏的把戏!罗德·布雷应该辞职,因为他没有获胜的机会。印第安纳州是唯一一个发生这种情况的州,我在山体滑坡中赢得了六次,其中包括该州历史上最高的票数。请记住,布雷对我们没有为共和党在众议院获得两个额外席位负有责任。 克里斯·加滕 (Chris Garten) 掌管印第安纳州参议院 — 他永远不会让您失望!唐纳德·J·特朗普总统
