Donald Trump is getting involved in key state primaries – often in cases where US presidents don’t intervene – urging voters to stay away and not vote for candidates who Trump regards as his political enemies.

Trump’s top target is the seven term Republican congressman in Kentucky, Thomas Massie who has stood up to Trump on issues including the Epstein files, congressional spending and the war in Iran. Massie now faces a challenge from a multi million dollar funded Trump backed candidate. Jolene Almendarez, Reporter for the Cincinnati Enquirer joins Justin to talk about Massie’s chances.
