## Resource

President Trump continues reshaping the Republican Party as another Trump-backed challenger defeats an incumbent Republican in a high-profile primary battle. Todd explains what Thomas Massie’s loss means for the future of the GOP, why the establishment still misunderstands Trump’s political influence, and how conservatives are fighting for control of the Republican Party ahead of the 2026 midterms. Todd also reacts to MSNBC’s Katy Tur questioning whether America’s rights truly come from God, unpacking the Declaration of Independence, America’s founding principles, and the spiritual battle shaping today’s political divide. Plus: South Carolina redistricting updates, Senate races, and the growing political consequences for Republicans who oppose Trump’s agenda.
