Donald Trump now has the Senate nominees he needed to win Republican primaries. We’ll quickly study if they will win in November, or if candidates with little expertise and a give attention to Mr. Trump’s 2020 grievances will value the social gathering majority management for one more two years.

Ultimately Mr. Trump performed for laughs by endorsing “ERIC” the day earlier than the election.
