Trump gets revenge on Republicans who won't kiss his ass in Tuesday's Indiana and Ohio primaries [View all]

President Donald Trump vowed revenge when the Republican supermajority in the Indiana state Senate embarrassed him in December, voting down Trump’s demands to redraw the state’s congressional maps to help the party win two more seats.

In Tuesday’s primary, he got it.

At least five of the seven Trump-endorsed challengers defeated GOP incumbent state senators who broke with the president and voted against redistricting.

Those senators said at the time they were following the will of their constituents. But after millions of dollars in advertising and outsized attention on ordinarily low-key state legislative primary races, Tuesday served as a reminder that all politics, no matter how local, can be nationalized.
