The Wall Street Journal editorial board isn't all that impressed with Trump's successful effort to boot Republican state lawmakers who opposed his redistricting efforts in Indiana. "The media scorekeepers have declared that President Trump remains the king of the Republican Party, after he helped to oust at least five GOP Indiana Senators, out of seven targeted Tuesday," the WSJ board wrote in a column on Wednesday. "The important question is whether his kingdom will shrink after November."With the November midterms coming up, Trump's victory in Indiana doesn't change the fact that the House districts there are split 7-2, compared to the 9-0 map Trump wanted in place to give the GOP two seats. On top of that, "Trump carried only 59 percent of the state's vote in 2024," and Trump's current approval ratings are sinking. "Trump's approval rating is grim," the WSJ board wrote. "But hey, he can still rule in Indiana primaries." The WSJ board noted that on Tuesday, Michigan also had an election to fill a vacant seat, and the GOP had nothing to boast there. "Michigan Republicans lost a chance to break Democratic control of their 19-18 state Senate," the board wrote. "Democrats are widening their margin in the national generic ballot." JD Vance was in Iowa earlier in the week too, which led the WSJ to point out that the GOP faces serious losses there as well as "tariff damage to the farm economy could cost the GOP two House seats and maybe the governorship."
