It's very disheartening that his public endorsements are helping those candidates win (Kobach in Kansas, for example). It makes me nervous for November. In Connecticut, a Trump-endorsed gubernatorial candidate won the GOP primary yesterday over the endorsed GOP candidate (not that that guy was any good, either). Trump's base is very active, but I so hope enough Democrats come out and beat the GOP candidate soundly. This guy co-opted the MAGA slogan by using it for Connecticut and wants to get rid of taxes that basically affect the 1%, like the estate tax. He also wants to get rid of the state income tax, which would be a disaster. It would mean cutting out tons of social services and town funding for education, thereby putting more of the tax burden on the 99%. At least if the Democrat gets in, he wouldn't do something that drastic and ridiculous. We have a divided legislature, much like that of the nation, so I don't foresee any real hope, but it still would be far better if the Democrat wins.
