| Republicans panicking as Trump's crumbling base threatens midterms Top Republicans are well aware of the problem tearing apart President Donald Trump's winning 2024 base, according to a new piece from The i Paper, and they are scrambling for a response ahead of the midterms. Writing for the outlet on Sunday, journalist Sarah Baxter argued that should the GOP come up short in the midterms this year, losing their House majority and potentially the Senate as well, it will almost certainly be driven by one problem: Trump's racism. That, more than anything, has driven away most of the diverse coalition of voters he mustered in 2024 to win reelection. |
