Trump plans to continue raising political funds to regain influence after the midterm election losses

According to AXIOS, Trump has informed his advisors that he plans to continue fundraising for his political action in order to regain his political influence following the Republican midterm election defeat. Maintaining a political organization, whether it is the existing MAGA Inc. super PAC or a newly established group, will provide Trump with a platform to influence the elections in 2028 and beyond, including the next presidential election.

This will also enable Trump to pressure Republican lawmakers who are considering breaking away from him. During the 2026 Republican primaries, Trump's MAGA Inc. helped maintain party discipline by defeating Kentucky Republican Congressman Thomas Massie, who openly criticized Trump. However, with the Democrats controlling Congress and major donors beginning to shift their focus to the 2028 election, fundraising for Trump may become more challenging.
