Rep. Marlin Stutzman, a Republican representing Indiana, posted several statements on his Twitter account on August 21, 2025, expressing support for former President Donald Trump and commenting on international and domestic political developments.

In a post made at 00:34 UTC, Stutzman claimed that "Trump has initiated negotiations between Russia and Ukraine, brokered the end of the conflict between Iran and Israel, had Hamas enter talks with Israel, and even brought a quiet resolution to a clash between India and Pakistan. PRESIDENT OF PEACE".

Later that day at 16:33 UTC, he addressed redistricting efforts in Indiana and nationwide. Stutzman wrote: "When I say I support President Trump’s push for redistricting—THIS is a reason why. Democrats have gerrymandered for years, silencing the conservatives in their states. Republicans have the opportunity in Indiana to make the playing field more level nationally. Why would we".

At 17:30 UTC on August 21, Stutzman quoted reporting about his views regarding the war in Ukraine: "‘Rep. Marlin Stutzman (R., Ind.) expressly said that, had Trump won in 2020, this war never would have happened The president, for his part, agrees with Stutzman. Trump has repeatedly blamed Biden’s weakness for Putin’s decision to invade Ukraine.’"

Marlin Stutzman's remarks come amid ongoing debates about U.S. foreign policy under different administrations as well as partisan disputes over redistricting practices across several states. Gerrymandering—the manipulation of electoral district boundaries to favor one party—has been a contentious issue both among Democrats and Republicans over recent decades.
