And it looks like Mr. Fuller, the individual, the former prosecutor that he's endorsing, is considered the lead candidate.

There's also in Kentucky, 4th Congressional District held by Thomas Massey,

where President Trump and his allies have really leaned into and put a lot of money into Congressman Massey's primary opponent.

That, I think, even more so than Georgia's 14th congressional district, will be a real test and real Alamo moment for Trump in terms of his party hold.

If Massey falls, that shows that Donald Trump still is the big elephant in the room.

If Massey prevails, this is a man who's co-sponsored the Epstein-Fowles legislation, for example.

He has been a thorn in President Trump's side for a number of years now.

If he survives, you could start seeing Republicans at the House level and other Republican candidates across the country begin to buck the president, realizing that, oh, I have a political future beyond him, number one.

And number two, he isn't able to simply leverage out people who don't agree with his agenda or don't go along with the White House.

The theme of Trump 2.0, Dana, has been the president exercising and really expanding executive authority in ways that his predecessors probably never imagined possible.

When you look at the Trump 2.0 agenda, much of it has come through executive orders and executive action.

Take, for example, DHS and the use of ICE and Border Patrol actions.

Not just in Minneapolis, but across the country.

Besides the big, beautiful bill, Congress has really been sidelined.

It hasn't been the first forethought of the president.

And I think we see that in the Supreme Court's ruling against his tariff, global tariff policies, where Justice Neil Gorsuch basically said to the president in his ruling, in his affirmative opinion, saying that, hey, I know it's more difficult, but go through Congress for some of these things, Mr. President.

And I think there's a real contempt, I think, sometimes that Donald Trump has for that legislative process, saying, hey, my people elected me to do this.

I'm going to do it by any means necessary.

And I think alarms his opponents, a lot of observers around the country.

And we're seeing this with this lead up to the speculation that there is going to be this pending executive order on elections.
