Senate shakeup: How a secret ballot could undermine a potential Trump endorsement in race to the top


Former President Trump has yet to endorse in the Senate GOP leader race, and doing so could have risks for him.

Donald Trump's potential endorsement for the next GOP Senate leader may not hold much weight in a secret ballot. His ability to influence Republicans often relies on fear of retribution, but in a secret vote, senators are free to choose without consequences. Endorsing a candidate who doesn't win could lead to an immediate rebuke from Senate Republicans, as the vote is a true reflection of conscience. Trump's endorsement could also irritate senators, who prefer not to be told who to support from outside the chamber.
