Congressional Republicans Try a New Approach: Telling Trump No
From the war in Iran to his plan to use taxpayer money to pay his allies, the Republican-controlled Congress has begun rebelling against President Trump.
Today, Julie Hirschfeld Davis, a congressional editor at The New York Times, discusses whether this rebellion is a preview of a new dynamic in Washington, or a temporary show of independence that will vanish just as quickly as it arrived.
Guest: Julie Hirschfield Davis, congressional editor at The New York Times.
Background reading: Mr. Trump says he never promised no new wars and defends the compensation fund.
