How did the American people respond to the DOJ rummaging through the home of a former Republican president?
Well, how about Trump going undefeated in primary races on Tuesday, with several upsets.
Voters are hoping to put as many allies as possible in Congress for Trump just in case he runs and wins in 2024.
Setting the Table
One of the bigger races of the day was in the Wisconsin gubernatorial race, where Trump-backed Tim Michels took the win…
I've seen enough: Trump-endorsed Tim Michels (R) defeats former Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch (R) in the #WIGOV GOP primary and will face Gov. Tony Evers (D) in the fall.

Trump gave Michels a huge vote of confidence, stating, “Wisconsin needs a Governor who will Stop Inflation, Uphold the Rule of Law, strengthen our Borders (we had the strongest borders in history just two years ago, now we have the weakest!) and End the well-documented Fraud in our Elections.
“Tim Michels is the best candidate to deliver meaningful solutions to these problems, and he will produce jobs like no one else can even imagine.”
Democrat Governor Tony Evers already fired a shot at Michels, calling him “the most extreme and divisive nominee possible.”
Trump also endorsed Leora Levy in Connecticut to go up against Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT),
He stated, “Leora Levy is running to represent the Great State of Connecticut in the United States Senate.
“The current Senator is a mocked and laughed at fool, who said for many years that he was a brave war hero in Vietnam, when the facts later revealed that he had never even been to Vietnam.”
Levy is a Cuban-born American, so this is going to make for a very interesting race.
If she unseats Blumenthal, it will be considered a HUGE upset.
Blumenthal has a 12-point edge over Levy before the primary, a lead that has been steadily decreasing since May.
If Republicans are going to take back the Senate, they are going to need some of these upsets.
Three key seats are very much in jeopardy, as Trump-backed candidates are trailing in states most Republicans expected to in.
Mehmet Oz is down by double digits in Pennsylvania, Herschel Walker is down by four points in Georgia, and Blake Masters is down by five points in Arizona.
We will likely need two of those three to regain the Senate, which puts a lot of pressure on Walker and Masters because Oz seems like a lost cause.
Ultimately, how the Senate swings will be how Trump’s endorsement power will be measured.
The establishment is locked and loaded to blame him if the Democrats take the majority.
