Whip Tom Emmer, the No. 3 House Republican, outright applauded Trump in an interview with our Meredith Lee Hill in Doral for "doing exactly what he was elected to do." And GOP Conference Chair Lisa McClain hailed the move as a "brilliant" idea.

The article from Politico discusses former President Donald Trump's influence on the Republican Party as he tests the limits of the party's tolerance for his controversial actions and statements. Trump has been actively engaging in activities that challenge the norms of political behavior, including his comments on NATO, his role in the January 6th Capitol riot, and his ongoing legal battles. Despite these controversies, many Republicans continue to support him, indicating a significant loyalty to Trump that could impact the party's direction and strategy moving forward. The piece highlights the internal conflict within the GOP, where Trump's dominance forces party members to choose between aligning with his brand of politics or risking alienation from a significant portion of the party's base. This dynamic is particularly crucial as the 2024 presidential election approaches, with Trump's actions potentially shaping the future of American conservatism.
