Trump underwater on every issue, rips his own party, grim signs in battleground Senate races
Here are some of the week's biggest political stories from NJ.com.

Trump is leaning into that role, telling voters to pretend he is on the ballot in November, though the strategy could backfire. And in a brutal takedown of his own party, Trump shared a post declaring the GOP is "f---ing up right now."
