“Trump Jr. is coming back to Montana because he is energized by our U.S. Senate candidate, Matt Rosendale, and the opportunity we have to Take Out Tester in the fall! Trump Jr. knows how important it is to have a strong supporter like Matt Rosendale in the U.S. Senate to help our president Make America Great Again,” the invitation reads.
Tester has emerged as a major target for the Trump administration after his rant against the GOP tax plan went viral last year and after he released a set of damning allegations that sunk Trump’s nominee to run the Veterans Affairs Department, Dr. Ronny Jackson.
The pro-Trump super PAC America First Action has already targeted Tester over Jackson’s failed nomination in ads ahead of November’s midterm elections.
“In Montana, we value integrity and support our president,” a narrator says in one ad from the super PAC. “But Jon Tester spread false information about a respected Navy admiral, helping D.C.

“Jon Tester’s been part of the D.C. swamp for far too long. He’s betrayed our trust, our veterans and our president,” it continues, calling Tester “disgraceful” and “dishonest.”
The Republican chairman of the Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committee has defended how Tester handled the release of the allegations against Jackson.
Trump Jr. previously tweeted his support for Rosendale in early June after Rosendale won a four-way GOP primary this month.

A Gravis poll taken earlier this month showed Tester with a 8-point lead over Rosendale, twice the margin with which he won over Republican Rep. Dennis Rehberg in 2012.
