Trump blames Indiana Republicans for delaying redistricting, threatening primaries over 2026 midterm strategy.

Donald Trump criticized Indiana Governor Mike Braun and Republican lawmakers for failing to advance redistricting efforts, claiming their inaction jeopardized GOP gains in the 2026 midterms. Trump accused Senate leaders Rodric Bray and Greg Goode of weakness and vowed to challenge them in primaries, asserting Braun’s governorship depended on his support. Despite pressure from Trump and Vice President JD Vance, Indiana Republicans opted for a 2026 regular session instead of a special one, halting the process. The standoff reflects growing internal divisions within the Republican Party over strategy and gerrymandering ahead of the next election cycle.
