Trump Backs Whatley in Gastonia Rally | Durham News

Trump’s making a surprise hometown return to Gastonia, NC, this Wednesday for a 7 PM rally at the Municipal Airport — not just to campaign, but to personally back GOP Senate candidate Michael Whatley in his showdown against Democrat Roy Cooper. Whatley, who Trump endorsed and once campaigned with in 2024 (helping secure North Carolina by three points), is thrilled to have the former president on his home turf. This high-visibility event is a major boost for Whatley’s bid as the election heats up — and tickets are still available through the campaign’s website. Don’t miss the chance to witness Trump’s enduring political power in action. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
