Donald Trump's recent actions have led to a notable revolt within the Republican Party, as reported by the Wall Street Journal. The tipping point was Trump's endorsement of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton over incumbent Senator John Cornyn in the Republican primary runoff. This decision shocked many GOP senators who viewed it as reckless and driven by personal grievances rather than party unity. For over a year, Republican senators had largely supported Trump's agenda, but frustrations have mounted as they perceive his focus on personal vendettas undermining their legislative efforts. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) described a recent meeting with acting Attorney General Todd Blanche as one of the most contentious he has witnessed, highlighting the growing discontent within the party. Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) expressed sadness over the endorsement, fearing it could cost Republicans significantly in the upcoming elections. With the GOP holding a slim 53-47 majority in the Senate, the implications of Trump's endorsement could be severe, particularly as resources may need to be diverted to defend Cornyn's traditionally red seat against potential losses.
