“House Freedom Caucus Chairman Bob Good was locked in a tight Republican primary in deep-red central Virginia late Tuesday with John McGuire, a state senator whose bid to oust his fellow hard-liner drew support from former president Donald Trump and establishment forces,” the Washington Post reports.
“The outcome in the rural 5th Congressional District hinges on whether a party that has driven many a moderate Never Trumper from elective office would do the same to a hard-right, 2020-election-denying incumbent such as Good, whose main quibble with the former president is that he is not conservative enough on abortion and guns.”
Politico: Trump and McCarthy wanted revenge. It didn’t quite go as planned.
