"Senate GOP's MAGA Shift May Propel Trump Toward Second Presidency"

The Republican Party is increasingly populated by MAGA-aligned senators, potentially smoothing the path for a more unbridled Donald Trump presidency should he win in 2024. Traditional GOP figures who have opposed Trump's tactics are retiring or losing influence, while over 100 Republican Congress members, including 17 sitting GOP senators, already back Trump's campaign. The shift towards a more Trump-loyal Senate could facilitate the enactment of his agenda, which includes controversial policies like massive immigrant detention camps and significant tariffs. With the Iowa caucuses approaching, Trump leads in polls, and his potential victory could be bolstered by a Senate more aligned with his vision.
