This R&D provides resources on growing turmoil within the Republican Party. After revelations of lewd talk by presidential candidate Donald Trump last week several Republican officials have ceased to endorse him and Speaker of the House Paul Ryan cancelled future appearances with his party’s presidential nominee. Trump responded by saying that he is now running against Democrats and Republicans who are cozy with “the establishment.” Pundits wonder if the split between Trump supporters and those that loathe him within the GOP could cause the party to suffer significant losses in the Senate and whether the party’s hold on the House will also be jeopardized.
