.Here are the top political news stories for today.
Steve Garvey just shot himself in the foot by not securing Trump's endorsement—MAGA support is crucial for winning.
Seems like Trump still thinks his endorsement is the golden ticket, but honestly, it's refreshing to see some GOP candidates trying to stand on their own.
Trump's criticism of Garvey for not seeking the MAGA endorsement just shows how much the GOP is still under his thumb, which is honestly concerning. It's a bit ironic, considering that having a diverse range of ideas within a party should be seen as a strength, not a weakness. This insistence on absolute loyalty to one figure over the party's broader principles doesn't bode well for the health of our democracy.

It's really surprising that Steve Garvey didn't reach out to President Trump for an endorsement. You'd think that in today's political climate, securing the backing of such a significant figure within the GOP would be a no-brainer, especially given how impactful the MAGA movement has been. It's pretty clear that Trump's support can make or break a campaign, particularly for Republicans in tough races. Garvey might be underestimating how crucial that endorsement could be for his success.
