## Resource

Trump’s midterms blitz could be a double-edged sword: while he vows to campaign in 35 key districts to rally GOP voters, some Republican candidates are quietly distancing themselves, fearing his presence might alienate swing voters. Democrats are watching with glee, hoping his high-profile appearances energize their base and draw out disaffected voters. With his approval rating at a dismal 32% — sinking among independents and even non-core Republicans — the stakes couldn’t be higher as the GOP navigates a tough political landscape heading into these pivotal elections.
