President Trump is seen as a major issue in the 2018 elections by both Democrats and Republicans in Nebraska.

Nebraska Democratic Party chair Jane Kleeb believes Democrats will benefit by running against Trump. . .

Nebraska Republican Party national committeeman J-L Spray understands why, but doesn’t necessarily buy into the idea that Trump will cost Republicans next year. . .

Spray, though, concedes it has been an “interesting trip” with Trump at the top of the party.
