Donald Trump Jr. plans to campaign against Michigan Republican Justin Amash in 2020 primary

Trump's son is planning to campaign against the only Republican congressman who has called for his father's impeachment.

Donald Trump Jr. will be heading to Michigan to fight Rep. Justin Amash in a primary battle, people close to the Trump Organization executive told CNBC on the condition of anonymity. This comes after Trump's son tweeted out a poll showing Amash losing to his only challenger so far in the race, state legislator Jim Lower, and hinting he will be heading to the Wolverine State to take on the four-term lawmaker.

"See you soon Justin... I hear Michigan is beautiful during primary season," Trump Jr. said

It's a solid red district and it's Trump's party now.
Lower will probably be the next Rep for Mich 3rd.
