This week in the saga

Tuesday night a town hall asks about revenge and he answers in four words — my revenge will be success. Saturday her home state votes: South Carolina falls to him by twenty points, and the rival who governed it twice watches her own map turn against her. By Monday the megadonor network cuts her funding off. And in Georgia the border war gets a name — a twenty-two-year-old nursing student, killed on a campus running trail — that the campaign will not put down.
