Dan S. Sullivan has my Complete and Total Endorsement for Re-Election as U.S. Senator from Alaska — HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Video transcript 2:56

Hello, Alaska. A very, very special place to me. I won it every single time I ran and I love you. I also brought more back to Alaska than anybody in human history. There's nothing close and nobody close and it's been my honor to do so. I'm asking you to go out and knock on doors and volunteer and get out and vote to re-elect a really good man, Senator Dan Sullivan, to the United States Senate. Dan is a true patriot, a proud Marine and an American First Warrior, and he always has come through for Alaska and he's always come through for me. He was a pivotal vote for the rebuilding of the United States military and unleashing Alaska energy and including opening of ANWR. Dan has my complete and total endorsement. He's running against a radical left lunatic named Mary Peltola. As a House member, she voted for every nation-wrecking policy of the Sleepy Joe Biden administration, the worst president in the history of our country. She voted for a catastrophic energy policy that was going to destroy our country but certainly destroy Alaska and it caused lots of inflation. She voted for wide open borders and men playing in women's sports and now she wants Alaska to put her into the Senate. I want Alaska by a lot. I know what your values are and those values do not go on to her. She would be a terrible senator. The radical left Democrats have also recruited a spoiler. It's cheating. It's a spoiler candidate to go on the ballot with the exact same name as your great Senator Dan Sullivan. This guy's name is Dan Sullivan. He knew nothing about politics. He was just put there by the Democrats to confuse the voter and it's very unfair but that's what they do. They cheat. They lie. They steal. They have horrible policy and that's why they don't get elected very much but we want to elect somebody who is great and who is legitimate and his name is Dan S Sullivan. That's what it is. Dan S Sullivan. He's your incumbent Senator. He's done a fantastic job. So on November 3rd go out and vote for Dan S Sullivan for the United States Senate. Isn't it sad that they put somebody named Sullivan to really delegitimize this election? It's a shame but go for Dan S Sullivan. He's got to win and now he's got to win even bigger because Dan S Sullivan will never let you down. Thank you very much.

"Dan S. Sullivan is the U.S. Senator from Alaska and is seeking re-election"

True

Daniel Scott Sullivan has been Alaska's junior U.S. senator since January 2015. He won re-election in 2020, so his term runs out in January 2027 and his seat is on the November 2026 ballot.

Receipts

No contradictions with other posts detected yet.

A templated endorsement between a leak threat and a CNN attack

The post is a stock Trump endorsement: "has my Complete and Total Endorsement for Re-Election," a one-line promise ("HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN!"), and the full signature "President DONALD J. TRUMP." Most of his 2025–26 endorsements for sitting Republican senators include a string of policy points ("Strong on the Border, our Military, Vets..."). This one skips them, probably because the attached video does that work. The text runs as a caption for the clip.

Who wrote it

The post went up at 18:09 UTC, which is 2:09 p.m. Eastern. The known events place Trump in Ireland on September 12–13, and the Xi state visit preparations put him back in Washington by mid-week, so this was early afternoon local time. The text carries almost no personal marks. It gives the senator's formal name with a middle initial ("Dan S. Sullivan"), uses the precise title ("U.S. Senator from Alaska"), and spells everything correctly. It also shows none of the drift that runs through the same day's other posts: "Keep on leaking you dirty dogs! When we find you, you will pay a big price!!!" and "Thankfully, very few people are watching!" The capitalized nouns ("Complete and Total," "Re-Election") are house style, so an aide can reproduce them as easily as Trump can. The likeliest process is that political staff drafted the post and he approved the endorsement itself. The video may show him speaking, but no transcript is available, so this rests on the text alone.

What the post is for

This is maintenance posting, and no injury or grievance shows up anywhere in it. The psychological content sits in the transaction. The endorsement treats Trump's approval as the thing voters should act on. "Complete and Total" presents his support as undivided, and "never let you down" vouches for the senator the way a guarantor vouches for a loan. Alaska and Sullivan's record barely appear. What the post really says is that Trump's word is the credential, which is the patron-client schema seen across his endorsement posts. The "Re-Election" framing, less than two months before the midterms, fits his attempt to hold Senate seats while the day's other posts sell his party-internal dominance ("TRUMP Approval Rating in the Republican Party is now 95%, A RECORD").

The splitting that runs through the same-day posts, with leakers as "dirty dogs" and CNN as "FAKE NEWS," appears here only in its idealizing half. Sullivan is all-good: "HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN!" is an unqualified guarantee about someone else's future conduct. The phrase is a formula and should not be read as a real prediction. Still, idealization and devaluation clearly sit side by side in this afternoon's output. The same session moves from threatening unnamed leakers to guaranteeing an ally, and the tone switches cleanly from one post to the next. That looks like curated sequencing, not a slide in mood.

Rhetoric

The rhetoric comes down to the superlative endorsement formula ("Complete and Total"), an emotional guarantee delivered in capitals, and borrowed authority through the signature. The post invokes the King archetype in its benevolent form, the leader who confers legitimacy. Hierarchy is reinforced, with status passing downward from patron to endorsed candidate. The post names no out-group and has no Warrior or Trickster content. That absence matters because the posts on either side of it are combative, and it tells us the combative posts are a separate stream, not a steady state.

Language and cognition

The single sentence is grammatical and coherent, with no word substitutions or name errors. "Dan S. Sullivan" is correct (Daniel Scott Sullivan). Because the post is likely staff-drafted and follows a template, it says nothing about the subject's current language production either way.

Facts

Sullivan is the sitting junior U.S. Senator from Alaska. He was first elected in 2014 and re-elected in 2020, so his seat is up in November 2026 and "Re-Election" is accurate. The endorsement is performative: the post itself is the endorsement.
