Donald Trump Jr. Rallies Indiana Republicans: Stay Active, 'I'm Not Sick Of Winning'
President Donald Trump's eldest son touched down in Indiana Monday to rally the state's Republican party. In a 13-minute-speech at the Indiana Republican Party's annual dinner that night, Donald Trump Jr. discussed the state's important role in the election, the early days of his father's presidency and the GOP's obligation in the future.
Trump Jr. told the crowd of 1,000 that notable achievements for his father like the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch are "reinvigorating" Democrats.
"We can't sit back on those victories, we have to stay active, because the one thing that I've seen is the other side, they've used this to reinvigorate their party," he said. "Now luckily for us, I think their message totally faulty and flawed. I don't think their message is particularly good or at all in touch with real Americans."

Trump Jr. paid homage to the former governor of Indiana, Vice President Mike Pence. He also took the opportunity to call out the Democratic party and their failure in the 2016 election.
"I'm saying I think they're [the Democrats] still missing it," he said. "They just didn't get the message during the election and they still don't get it today. But it's easy to run a flawed candidate if you're just throwing a lot of money at it."
The president's eldest son, who is running the Trump organization, said he wasn't "sick of winning yet" and called for renewed commitment from Indiana Republicans.
"We can't take majorities in the House and the Senate and say, 'Hey, they're always going to do what they want,' because most of them, on both sides, are still in that D.C. mindset that I think my father will break," he said.
Trump Jr., has shown increasing involvement in politics, fueling speculation that he might run for public office himself someday. While he denied rumors that he'd run for New York governor against incumbent Andrew Cuomo in 2018, he didn't rule out the possibility in the future.
"Maybe someday. It's not something that I'm doing now. But you never know. It's fascinating stuff," he told the Associated Press in an April interview. "People keep asking me: 'When are you running for mayor?' Well, I'm not. If I was, New York City mayor is much less interesting to me than perhaps other things like governor of a state. That's not saying I'm running. It's just saying that, hey, if I ever did something, I'd probably be more interested in something like that."
