INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY
Trump wants to campaign heavily for Republicans, but vulnerable GOP candidates are wary of having him visit their districts as his low approval threatens their chances. Some have privately told Trump’s team not to come, while others fear distancing themselves could anger the MAGA base and cost them support from Trump’s $400 million-plus war chest. Many Republicans instead want Trump focused on safer red states or used through targeted ads and digital campaigns. Source: POLITICO
