Trump's own campaign adviser tells him GOP close to dead in Minnesota

Reacting to a Republican candidate from Minnesota who dropped out of the race and has indicated he will leave the party on Monday due to Donald Trump’s anti-immigrant siege of his state, a key Trump-aligned campaign consultant expressed dismay at the damage the president is doing to the party.

According to the Wall Street Journal, lawyer Chris Madel abandoned his bid for the GOP nomination to replace outgoing Governor Tim Walz (D-MN), stating he could not reconcile his candidacy with the administration's enforcement tactics.
