  • The Republican party should be called the Trump party, according to Eric Trump.

  • His father's endorsement record was seen as a sign of his influence in the GOP.

  • He said that Donald Trump had defined the Republican party.

The Republican party should be known as the "Trump party" according to Eric Trump.

He made the comments while talking with Eric on Newsmax.

Is the Republican party the party of Donald Trump? "Do you know who I asked?" he asked.

There is no doubt. It's not the Republican party, it's the Trump party, according to Trump. The elder Trump's endorsement record is 98% with 183 victories and 17 losses.

Eric Trump said that his father has redefined what the party is.

He said that his father had created a new party that was completely different from the Republican party.

RINO is an insult to GOP lawmakers who do not support Trump.

Trump said that Dick Cheney had "killed another political dynasty" by losing the Wyoming Republican primary.

The Bushes and Clintons were killed by him. He took the lives of the Cheneys last night. He said that he has been RINO-hunting since he got into politics.

Hageman's win over Cheney on Tuesday was the largest victory margin that a Trump-backed candidate has earned.

Several candidates have been helped by the former president's endorsement.

According to The New York Times, the elder Trump supports candidates who run without opposition. According to the outlet, the former president waits to pick a candidate when they are likely to win.

David Perdue, a Trump-backed candidate for governor of Georgia, lost his primary to the incumbent. Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger defeated his opponent by a large margin.

Some have questioned the power of Donald Trump's endorsements after the losses of some of his favored candidates. Trump's popularity among his loyal supporters appears to be waning as a result of lawsuits and investigations.

There are differing opinions from those in Trumpworld. The FBI raided Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence last Monday and the far-right called for the agency's funding to be slashed.

Maryland Governor Larry Hogan claimed last month that the former president's influence has "Decreased dramatically" and pointed to five GOP governors who have stood up to Trump.

Alex Jones, a conspiracy theorist who was once loyal to the former president, is no longer supporting him.

Trump is still in the lead in the polls. If the former president were to run for re-election, a recent survey found that over half of the voters would choose him. According to a survey by CBS in March, more than half of Republicans want their candidates to talk about being loyal to Trump.
