David Frum: Trump Shows He’s Still Got Juice
David Frum’s recent analysis in The Atlantic examines what Indiana’s Republican primary results reveal about the future of the GOP ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. The article argues that despite shifting national polling and growing concerns about President Trump’s political vulnerabilities, Republican candidates who distance themselves from him still face significant risks within the party. Frum points to the defeat of several Indiana state senators who opposed a Trump-backed redistricting effort as evidence that loyalty to Trump remains one of the most powerful forces shaping Republican primaries. The piece explores how internal party discipline, ideological pressure, and fear of political retaliation continue to define Republican politics at both the state and national levels.
Frum also raises broader questions about what these dynamics could mean for the 2026 midterms and the long-term direction of American democracy. He suggests that many Republican officials remain hesitant to challenge Trump publicly, even when political conditions appear unfavorable, because the consequences inside the party can be immediate and severe. The article serves as both a political analysis and a warning about the increasing influence of party loyalty over independent governance and institutional norms. Source: The Atlantic.
