Trump to Campaign for Hyde-Smith in Mississippi as GOP Super PAC Buys Ads
President Donald Trump will hold a rally for Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith in Corinth as Republicans spend money to defend the Senate seat.
KEY POINTS
- Trump will campaign for Cindy Hyde-Smith in Corinth on Monday night
- Senate Leadership Fund reserved about 160000 dollars in Mississippi ads
- Democrats plan to spend roughly 1 million dollars on the race
- Scott Colom is a 43-year-old district attorney backed by top Democrats
- Trump won Mississippi by 23 points two years ago
President Donald Trump plans to visit Mississippi next week to campaign for U.S. Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith on Monday night at the Crossroads Arena in Corinth. Hyde-Smith said at an event in Vicksburg that Trump is trying to be helpful and expressed confidence in her record.
Democratic nominee Scott Colom said Hyde-Smith is scared and is sending Trump to the state because she will not answer questions about health care, farmers, and the Epstein files. Colom challenged Trump to a debate.
“Hyde-Smith is scared and that's why she's sending Donald Trump down here.”
Senate Leadership Fund, a leading Republican super PAC, made an initial ad reservation of about 160000 dollars in Mississippi on Thursday. More cash is expected as Democrats announced they will spend roughly 1 million dollars on ads for the race.
Republicans say they do not believe they will lose in Mississippi, a state Trump won by 23 points two years ago. However, they are closely watching Scott Colom, a 43-year-old district attorney backed by Barack Obama, Kamala Harris, and Raphael Warnock.
From the start of 2026 through the end of September, the Mississippi Senate race saw less than 5 million dollars in ad spending. Republicans are already defending incumbents in Kansas and South Carolina while spending heavily in Texas, Ohio, Iowa, and Alaska.
