As the 2026 midterm elections approach, divisions within the MAGA camp are becoming increasingly visible. From the war in Iran and rising fuel prices to the Epstein files, several of Trump’s decisions are fuelling divisions among his most loyal supporters.

And can Trump still mobilise his base ahead of the midterms? 🔍 Our journalist Stella Elgersma breaks down the divisions within the MAGA movement and Donald Trump’s strategy to rally his supporters, once again.
