“Four years after an unorthodox presidential bid that laid bare deep divisions among Republicans, President Trump is accepting the nomination for a second term before a party that has largely united behind him, embracing his America-first foreign and economic policies and unorthodox, sometimes chaotic style,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
“Mr. Trump has taken command of the GOP through a combination of persuasion and purges. He has brought rank-and-file Republican voters around to his views on economic, social and foreign-policy issues.”
“He has supported loyalists to help take control of state and local party infrastructure around the country and has jumped into primaries for House, Senate and governor to reward allies and punish apostates.”
Politico: The GOP is now Trump — it’s just not sure which one.
