Jonathan Lemire and Michael Scherer: “Even though Trump’s power over his party appears at its pinnacle, many Republicans believe that the president has actually accelerated his own political decline.”
“Many of those primary winners may struggle in November, darkening the GOP’s prospects for keeping control of Congress. And at least some of the defeated incumbents, who will serve on Capitol Hill until next January, now feel liberated to push back on what they dislike in Trump’s agenda.”
“Others in the Senate who are not up for reelection are bitter about the president’s role in their colleagues’ defeat and have shown little interest in helping him pursue his personal-grievance campaign.”
