Alex Balazs falsely claimed a Trump endorsement in a staged video, contradicting Trump’s actual support for his opponent, Rep. Julie Fedorchak.
U.S. House candidate Alex Balazs posted a staged Facebook video on February 16, 2026, depicting a fictional phone call with Donald Trump in which he claims to receive an endorsement.
The video, filmed in his kitchen with a North Dakota number displayed, portrays Trump praising Balazs, contradicting Balazs’s earlier criticism of incumbent Rep. Julie Fedorchak for aligning too closely with Trump, including on the Jeffrey Epstein records bill.
Trump has publicly endorsed Fedorchak, making Balazs’s claim false.
Balazs called the video a “joke” for President’s Day, but critics warn such staged content risks spreading disinformation, especially after a 2024 incident involving false texts about Fedorchak.
With Fedorchak expected to skip the Republican convention, Balazs may win the endorsement by default, raising concerns about the credibility of political messaging.
