Republicans are right to be concerned about the November midterms. The party’s prospects are darkening thanks to sagging presidential approval ratings and recent Democratic wins in special elections. In the face of this uncertainty, President Trump has yet to endorse candidates or approve a spending plan for the massive $300 million-plus war chest he controls.
Sources say that Trump currently seems detached and noncommittal, and on some days, the president simply seems not to care about the midterms. This is nightmarish for the campaign committees and super PACs that are relying on the White House to set the strategy and clear the field.
