Summary

Marc Short, former Chief of Staff to Vice President Mike Pence and now Chairman of Advancing American Freedom, says heavy Republican spending against fellow GOP candidates could "demoralize" voters and backfire in November, as members grow increasingly fearful of crossing President Trump. He also warns rising gas prices and higher costs for farmers—including fertilizer and trade pressures tied to tariffs—could weigh on voters in Middle America and threaten Republican strength in traditionally safe districts. He speaks with Kailey Leinz on the late edition of Bloomberg's "Balance of Power." (Source: Bloomberg)
