Great Lakes Guide — GOP United for Victory
GOP UNITED — While Democrats ratchet up the rhetoric towards each other and are forced to completely revamp their statewide campaigns, Michigan Republicans are more united than ever.
President Trump and Senator J.D. Vance visited Grand Rapids for their first rally as a ticket and were welcomed by tens of thousands of Michiganders at a PACKED Van Andel Arena.
ENDORSEMENT — On stage with President Trump at the rally, Sandy Pensler announced he had suspended his campaign and endorsed Mike Rogers to unify the party.
“My campaign was always about making America better. The best way to do that is to enact President Trump's policies. To do that, we need control of the Senate, a divisive continued primary effort hurts the chances of that, and that's not OK. So tonight I’m doing the right thing and ceasing my Senate candidacy. It's the right thing. President Trump endorsed Mike Rogers. Tonight, so am I. Mike's going to make a heck of a senator." — Sandy Pensler
BYE BYE BIDEN — Following a DISASTROUS poll from the Detroit Free Press that showed President Trump leading Joe Biden 7 percent, Democrats removed Biden from the ticket. Bad news for Democrats like Elissa Slotkin - Kamala Harris is losing Michigan too.
Reminder: Harris has supported Biden the entire way, overseeing the largest cost of living increase in a generation and was personally tasked with securing the border as Biden’s Border Czar — Leading to the largest immigration crisis in American history.
Kamala Harris is EXTREME and voters will be reminded of her record of failing Michigan families.

ON THE TRAIL — Meanwhile, Mike Rogers continues to campaign across Michigan, campaigning hard to win in August and November.
Mike visited Midland this week to discuss common sense solutions for issues facing Michiganders.
“We're going to make America respected again,” Rogers said. “We're gonna make America safe again. We're gonna make our groceries affordable again. We're gonna get America believing in ourselves again, for the future of this country.”
NO BACKBONE — Elissa Slotkin voted NO on a bipartisan resolution to condemn the Biden-Harris Administration’s handling of the southern border crisis, specifically calling out Border Czar Harris.
