Behind the scenes: Trump’s power politics
Jonathan Swan 18 hours ago

…Senior Republican officials have told me they’re holding their breath, hoping Trump won’t endorse hardliner Kris Kobach in Tuesday’s Kansas gubernatorial primary.

This morning:

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump
Kris Kobach, a strong and early supporter of mine, is running for Governor of the Great State of Kansas. He is a fantastic guy who loves his State and our Country – he will be a GREAT Governor and has my full & total Endorsement! Strong on Crime, Border & Military. VOTE TUESDAY!
10:48 AM – 6 Aug 2018
