AP: GOP primary candidates have “embraced Trump’s falsehoods as they have tried to win over his endorsement, deflect his fury or win over his base.”
Ahead of Donald Trump’s rally in Arizona tonight, new reports from CBS, The Associated Press and The Hillare highlighting how Trump is escalating the chaos in the AZ Republican Senate primary and in GOP primaries across the Senate battlegrounds – and how Republicans are warning they “risked nominating fringe candidates who would go on to lose in the general.”
Earlier this week, Roll Calland POLITICO also examined how Trump’s “focus has turned to the contest for the Senate”, where he’s attempting to play “kingmaker” and “boost MAGA candidates” as GOP Senate candidates are “duking it out” for his support.
