President Trump and first lady Melania Trump arrived together at the Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections office on Saturday after the president spent the morning at his nearby golf course. Wearing an "I Voted" sticker, Trump said he voted for all Republicans. Trump has previously been criticized for voting by mail despite his criticism of the method.
Trump defended a controversial advertisement from Ohio Republican gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, which has faced intense blowback for featuring the estranged mother of Democratic rival Dr. Amy Acton. He also defended his decision to have his administration file a lawsuit to block certification of the U.S. Senate race in Alaska if Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan loses due to a second candidate with the same name on the ballot.
On foreign policy, Trump commented on the war in Iran, saying, "I may have to finish it off. Or maybe they'll make a deal, but I'm not sure. Either way, we win." Melania Trump, who this week brokered a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine in the Ukrainian city of Oleshky to allow for humanitarian aid and civilian evacuations, was asked whether she might travel to Ukraine. "We will see," she told reporters.
In Florida, Trump has endorsed Republican Rep. Byron Donalds in the gubernatorial race against David Jolly, and campaigned for Republican Sen. Ashley Moody in the Senate race against Angie Nixon.
