The Republican Party tumbled toward anarchy Monday over its presidential nominee, as House Speaker Paul Ryan cut Donald Trump loose in an emergency maneuver to preserve the partys endangered congressional majorities, the Washington Post reports.
With Republicans at war amongst themselves, Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton moved swiftly Monday to pry away moderate Republican-leaning voters who are turned off by Trump. Her campaign launched an advertising blitz featuring testimonials from ordinary Republicans explaining why they were voting for Clinton.
Wall Street Journal: That darkening picture for Republicans has some in the party concerned that they wont be able to maintain their majorities in the Senate and even in the House.
