Trump has ‘alienated’ voters ahead of midterms, Thomas Massie warns after primary loss
Republican Congressman Thomas Massie warns that Donald Trump's influence is causing a 'Trump disappointment syndrome' within the GOP, as he lost a primary to a Trump-endorsed challenger. Massie's opposition to Trump's policies on Iran, government spending, and the Jeffrey Epstein files contributed to his defeat, signaling potential electoral risks for the party in the midterms.
