Trump pulls endorsement from GOP lawmaker over alleged lack of support for administration's tariff agenda
Overview
Trump withdrew his endorsement of Rep. Jeff Hurd after Hurd cited Congress’ constitutional authority over trade, part of a dispute over tariffs. The move showed Trump’s willingness to punish intra-party dissent and has been cited by Never Trump Republicans as evidence that his approach is deepening divisions and discouraging independent judgment within the GOP. John Thune’s public push for an early Trump endorsement of Sen. John Cornyn underscores why many GOP figures seek Trump’s backing despite the risk of punishment for dissent.
