Summary

Cross Donald Trump at your own risk! That appears to be the main takeaway from Indiana's primary. Last year, several state Republicans balked at redistricting to better reflect GOP voters. Trump vowed revenge and supported primary challengers, and most of those challengers won. This was a gamble on the President's part and the gamble paid off. Now the question is: can these MAGA Republicans govern? Henry Olsen, Senior Fellow at the Ethics & Public Policy Center, says the Indiana results are a huge show of strength for Trump. Message to Republicans everywhere: defy the President at your own peril!

Thank you. are beyond redistricting and beyond Indiana. Well, I have one lesson for people.
