Trump endorses Nassau Exec Bruce Blakeman in move that could sway Long Island race: ‘100% MAGA’

Trump threw his support behind Blakeman in a Sunday Truth Social post, calling him an “America First Patriot” as he urged Nassau residents to vote for the incumbent.

“Bruce has been with us from the very beginning, and is 100% MAGA,” Trump posted Sunday.

“He is working tirelessly with the Brave Heroes of Law Enforcement, ICE, and Border Patrol to Safeguard our Communities, Ensure LAW AND ORDER, Defend our always under siege Second Amendment, Keep our now very Secure Border, SECURE, End Migrant Crime, and Stop Communism from ruining our once Great Cities,” the president added.

Trump went on to praise Blakeman as a fighter for lower taxes and cutting red tape, someone who champions American manufacturing, energy “dominance,” and what he called the nation’s “golden age.”

“Nassau County: get out and vote!” Trump wrote.

“Bruce Blakeman has my COMPLETE AND TOTAL ENDORSEMENT — he will never let you down!”

Trump’s endorsement comes as Blakeman faces Democratic challenger Seth Koslow in one of the area’s most hotly contested races.

Blakeman, the first Republican to flip Nassau County red since 1988, happily accepted Trump’s endorsement.

“[I am] blessed to have the support of President Trump who secured our borders, is killing drug cartels who are poisoning our kids and protecting American jobs!” Blakeman told The Post.
