Republican Resistance Grows Against Trump Agenda

Republican lawmakers are increasingly breaking ranks with President Trump on key issues including foreign aid and national security funding. While some analysts view the dissent as election-year politics, others point to growing frustration over his opposition to several Republican reelection bids.

Republican lawmakers in the United States are increasingly breaking ranks with Donald Trump on key legislative and funding priorities. Multiple factions in Congress recently blocked $1 billion for a White House ballroom and rejected a $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund. This internal friction threatens Trump's most ambitious initiatives as the midterm elections approach.
