Cassidy’s Political Survival May Depend on Trump’s Silence

“Bill Cassidy’s political career was on life support not so long ago. Now Senate Republicans are waiting to see if President Donald Trump will let him make a miraculous recovery,” Politico reports.

“The potential U-turn comes after the two-term Louisiana Republican was written off by much of his party’s MAGA base when he voted in 2021 to convict Trump over his alleged role in fomenting the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. But since January, Cassidy has stuck closely behind Trump, touting his support for the president’s nominees and brushing off questions about his relationship with the White House.”
