welcome back. i'm stephanie ruhle here in d.c. the top rung of the trump party, you know, the ones running is it, came out on top last night. congressman mark sanford lost his primary race in south carolina to a pro-trump insurgent just hours after president trump attacked him on social media. this morning, trump is taking a victory la tweeting my political repntative didn't want me to get involved in the mark sanford primary thinking that sanford wouldasily win. thin a few hours left, i felt that kie was such a good candidate and sanford was so bad. i had to give it a shot. congrats to katie rington. steve kornacki at the board.
