Tuesday brought another set of primaries across the country — in Maine, South Carolina, Nevada, North Dakota and Virginia — and another set of surprises. Here are the night's winners and losers.

Winners

President Trump: It's overly simplistic to say that South Carolina GOP congressman Mark Sanford lost his primary Tuesday because of Trump. But Trump was definitely a factor in making Sanford the second House Republican in 2018 to lose a primary.

If he took your take on things, he would not be where he is. Obviously he has the winning strategy. I understand what you’re saying however, we must have him in this position and if he were to be as you say he should, he would not be where he is now.
