Ed Gallrein is the Trump-endorsed Kentucky veteran and fifth-generation farmer who is challenging anti-Israel Rep. Thomas Massie in Kentucky’s 4th District in the Republican Primary.
Unlike Massie, Ed Gallrein is rock-solid on preserving the U.S. alliance with Israel and ready to join the fight against antisemitism in our own country.
This race is of enormous national importance. Ed’s candidacy received immediate support from President Trump because the President understands the stakes and knows that Ed represents the kind of steady and proven leadership America needs.
For the vital work still ahead, President Trump does not need voices that distract. Thomas Massie consistently votes with Democrats to defeat President Trump’s key legislative initiatives. In fact, Massie was the only Republican Congressman to vote every single time against the President’s One Big Beautiful Bill.
Massie is the single most consistent vote against every major pro-Israel and pro-Jewish community measure in Congress, including Iron Dome, the U.S. Israel strategic partnership, and even the bipartisan resolution condemning the rise of antisemitism.
President Trump needs reliable patriots who put the country first. Ed Gallrein is exactly that. He is unwavering in his support for the United States alliance with Israel, and is fully committed to fighting the rise of antisemitism in our own country. His military service, his deep roots in Kentucky, and his record of integrity speak for themselves.
This race will play a meaningful role in shaping the future direction of our party, the strength of our national security, and the values we elevate in public service.
