President Donald Trump has thrown his political weight behind Transportation Secretary Sean Duffys son-in-law, Michael Alfonso, in the race for Wisconsins 7th Congressional District, further consolidating his influence over the future direction of the Republican Party.
According to Fox News, President Trump praised Alfonsos family ties and conservative credentials in a Tuesday night Truth Social post. "Michael is the son-in-law of our GREAT Secretary of Transportation, Sean Duffy, and the wonderful Rachel Campos-Duffy, of FoxNews, one of the most popular (and talented!) anchors in all of Television," the president declared in a Tuesday night Truth Social post.
"Michael Alfonso has been a WINNER all of his life, comes from a truly spectacular family, and has my Complete and Total Endorsement to be the next Representative from Wisconsins 7th Congressional District HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN!" Trump asserted. Alfonso, positioning himself as a staunch ally of the America First agenda, embraced the backing as a mandate to advance a robust conservative platform in Congress.
Alfonso noted in a post on X, "It is my greatest honor to accept this endorsement from President Donald J. Trump. He is truly the greatest president of all time, and I pledge to be a steadfast MAGA warrior for the people of Wisconsins 7th District." His remarks signal a clear alignment with Trump-era policies on border security, economic growth, and limited government.
Trump also endorsed GOP Rep. Tom Tiffany, who currently represents Wisconsin's 7th Congressional District, but is running for governor. "Tom Tiffany has my Complete and Total Endorsement to be the next Governor of Wisconsin HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN!" Trump declared in a Monday night Truth Social post issued minutes after the post backing Alfonso for Congress.
"Im honored to earn President Trumps endorsement," Tiffany noted in a post on X. "Just one year into his second term, wages are rising, gas prices are down, our economy is growing, and our border is secure. Its time to restore common-sense leadership to Madison." With Trumps dual endorsements, Wisconsin conservatives are being offered a clear choice to double down on policies of secure borders, energy independence, and pro-growth economics at both the state and federal levels.
