A tough week for Trump on Capitol Hill, as Republicans deal him setbacks - The Washington Post
Overview
A chaotic week on Capitol Hill saw Republican lawmakers visibly push back against President Trump, asserting independence and producing legislative setbacks. The president’s sudden cancellation of the housing signing and his framing of policy preferences as an emergency forced House Speaker Mike Johnson into a rushed White House visit, underscoring how the episode intensified intra-party instability. These episodes suggest continued limits on the president’s control over the GOP caucus and potential complications for legislative coordination ahead of the midterms.
