Is Trump Now the GOP Voice and How It Shapes 2020
The piece argues Trump dominates the Republican Party, sidelining traditional conservative voices as senators like Flake Corker and McCain retire or face illness. It notes widespread GOP approval of Trump among voters, with few leaders challenging him publicly, and discusses midterm primaries as a test of whether the party remains Trump’s or seeks alternatives. Doyle McManus analyzes the shift and implications for democracy.
