The Hill — As President Trump heads to another rally on Saturday, this time in Ohio, The Hill reports that some GOP strategists fear over exposure, might hurt Republicans heading into the mid-terms, “He can distract and he can also overshadow,” said former Mitt Romney spokesperson Ryan Williams, he added, “he tends to make events about him rather than the candidate. That has the potential to be somewhat of a wildcard. He can say things that might distract from the overall message of the campaign.”

Others such as Corey Lewandowski believe the President is the only one that can “rev up the GOP.” Lewandowski feels that President Trump’s presence is “essential to counteract high turnout,” of the democrats.
