Republicans Trump Snubbed Act Like He Endorsed Them

“Republican candidates snubbed by President Trump for primary endorsements have found a workaround: Act like he endorsed them anyway,” Axios reports.

“Trump’s approval numbers are sagging but he still dominates the GOP, using endorsements to reward allies, punish detractors and reinforce his vise-like grip on the party.”

“It’s a dynamic that has led Republicans in races nationwide to covet Trump’s blessing, tout his endorsement — and appear a bit misleading when they don’t get it.”
