Former President Donald Trump recently announced his support for Republican candidate J.R. Majewski, who is running for Ohio’s 9th Congressional District.
Majewski is looking to unseat current-Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur (D-OH-09), who has served in the U.S. House since 1983, making her the second-longest-serving female in that body’s history.

“J.R. Majewski will be a fantastic Congressman for the incredible people of Ohio’s 9th Congressional District,” the former president released in a statement. “J.R. bravely served in the U.S. Air Force and has spent 20 years working in the nuclear energy industry. In Congress, J.R. will always Promote American Energy, Secure the Border, Support our Farmers, Protect Life, Defend the Second Amendment, Fight for Election Integrity, and Provide our Veterans with the Care they Deserve. J.R. ‘s opponent, Marcy Kaptur, has been in Congress for nearly four decades, is not at all a respected Member, and is fully controlled by Nancy Pelosi and the Radical Left. She wants to stay there forever and do nothing. J.R. Majewski will be a fantastic Congressman and he has my Complete and Total Endorsement.”
“I’m beyond honored to have earned President Trump’s endorsement and I look forward to serving each and everyone in Ohio’s 9th Congressional District!” Majewski wrote on Twitter after receiving Trump’s endorsement.

Majewski describes himself as “a common-sense conservative” and a “Rush baby” who “wholeheartedly believes in the founding principles of the Republican Party” including; limited government, The Constitution, free-market and supply-side economics, lower taxes, individual responsibility, and America First.
At the end of March, the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) announced that it is targeting the 9th Congressional District seat in Ohio for a GOP takeover.
“Republicans have the message, the candidates, and the resources needed to take back the majority,” NRCC Chairman Tom Emmer said at the time. “Vulnerable Democrats who chose not to retire will be shown no mercy.”
