White House Holds Closed-Door Midterm Messaging Meeting Ahead of State of the Union

Senior aides led by Susie Wiles and James Blair stressed an economy-first message.

Overview

  • Top administration officials met Tuesday evening at the Capitol Hill Club to align messaging for the 2026 midterms, according to Fox News reporting.
  • Attendees included multiple Cabinet secretaries and departmental chiefs of staff, with coordination focused on promoting President Trump's record.
  • Chief pollster Tony Fabrizio told participants the economy is the dominant voter concern and urged emphasis on affordability efforts, sources said.
  • The session reviewed fresh polling and the 2026 electoral map while urging Cabinet members to serve as surrogates in key battleground states.
