The 2026 midterms are coming fast, and the endorsements have gotten underway in several races, including in Kentucky following Senator Mitch McConnell's (R-KY) announcement that he will not run for reelection. 

In an email from Republican Kentucky businessman Nate Morris, who recently announced he's running for the seat, Morris revealed that he has received support from Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-OH).

It read:

Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-OH) today endorsed successful entrepreneur and America First conservative Nate Morris for U.S. Senate. Sen. Moreno offered the following comment:

"If we are going to put America First again, we need to send a conservative outsider to Washington, not another career politician - that's why I am incredibly proud to endorse Nate Morris for the United States Senate" said Moreno, "Nate will stand shoulder to shoulder with me in the fight to secure our border, deport illegals, and say 'hell no' to any attempt at amnesty. Join me in supporting Nate and sending a true ally for President Trump to the U.S. Senate."

In response, Nate Morris offered the following comment:

"I'm humbled to be endorsed by Senator Bernie Moreno — a true America First Senator who built his success in the real world. Like Bernie, I'm a businessman, not a career politician, and I'm running to take out the D.C. trash. I can't wait to get to work with Bernie to deport every single illegal that Joe Biden let invade our country, and to put an end to the McConnell brand of America Last politics that has left American workers behind for far too long," said Morris.

Following the email, Moreno posted a message on X that read, "We need more business people in D.C. It's really just that simple, and @NateMorris will always do the right thing for his constituents and for America. I'm proud to support him and hope many of my Republican colleagues will do the same. Let's go!"

And we obviously don't have to tell you that the GOP holding on to the majority in the House of Representatives and Senate is vital in order for President Donald Trump to keep enacting his America First agenda, which he has wasted no time in executing over the last six months.

As my RedState colleague Ward Clark reported, Morris has also received the key endorsement of Senator Jim Banks (R-IN). 

He wrote:

Nate Morris is the Chairman and CEO of Lexington, Kentucky's Morris Industries. He also founded the company Rubicon Technologies and later served as CEO of that company. He is, reportedly, a personal friend and supporter of Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) and was encouraged in his Senate ambitions by Vice President JD Vance.

Mr. Morris already announced his candidacy on Donald Trump Jr.'s podcast:

Moreno and Banks have been joined by Charlie Kirk and Turning Point, among others, who have endorsed Morris for U.S. Senate in Kentucky.

As RedState has reported, the Kentucky Senate Seat should be a GOP safe hold.

President Trump is leading America into the "Golden Age" as Democrats try desperately to stop it.
