Republicans put a focus on issues such as the economy and crime, as well as recruiting people to run for office.Illinois Republicans talked about taking back the suburbs as they gathered for their day at the Illinois State Fair Thursday.One of the strategies of Republican leaders clearly seems to be to avoid talking about Donald Trump, for now.

"Nothing is permanent in politics," McKissick said. "Victory is not permanent. Defeat is not permanent." "Listen, I'm not gonna think about hypotheticals and what could happen," Illinois Representative Darin LaHood said. "We're gonna have a process. That's where we have a wide open primary. We're gonna have a great set of candidates running."
