Trump's House of Cards: A Rare Rebuke in Tennessee The Republican primary defeat of U. S. Rep. Andy Ogles in Tennessee marks a rare instance of President Donald Trump's endorsement being repudiated at the polls.
This development has significant implications for the midterm elections, where Republicans are desperate to maintain their slim majority in the House.
Ogles' loss can be attributed to a combination of factors, including his campaign finance controversies and the strong challenge from former state Agriculture Commissioner Charlie Hatcher.
