Trump is dominating Republican primaries — but will it matter in the midterms?

President Donald Trump’s absolute dominance over the Republican Party was fully cemented this month after a series of brutal, high-profile primary purges. From the ousting of five Indiana state senators who blocked his redistricting agenda, to the dramatic defeat of Senator Bill Cassidy in Louisiana, the "Trump Revenge Tour" hit its peak with the historic unseating of veteran libertarian-conservative Representative Thomas Massie in Kentucky's 4th District. Trump's primary record has proven nearly untouchable, leaving every Republican in Washington with a stark ultimatum: total alignment with the White House, or immediate political retirement. #Election2026 #Trump #GOPPrimaries #MidtermElections #Republicans
