“Threatening to primary people who don’t think for themselves, it always backfires.” “ Republicans are really good at eating their young and cannibalizing ourselves,” Sen. Cynthia Lummis said.

Sen. Bill Cassidy (R- LA ) is already facing a primary challenge from Louisiana Treasurer John Fleming .

Cassidy voted to convict Trump in his second impeachment trial for the Jan. 6 Capitol attack.

Fleming, a former congressman, said challengers like him are bound to crop up “organically”.
