  • After nearly derailing a spending bill last month, Trump continues to shake up business on Capitol Hill, shifting positions on how Republicans should fund his policies.

Donald Trump has shifted his stance on a bipartisan border security bill, initially calling it "a great bill" and "beautiful" but later opposing it after backlash from conservative critics and allies like Fox News hosts and House Speaker Mike Johnson. The bill, which includes funding for border security, aid to Ukraine, and support for Israel, was part of a broader negotiation to address border issues and foreign aid. Trump's change in position came after he was criticized for potentially giving President Biden a political win. He now claims the bill would be "another gift to the Radical Left Democrats" and has urged Republicans to reject it, aligning himself with hardliners who demand stricter immigration policies. This flip-flop has caused confusion and frustration among some Republicans who were initially supportive of the legislation.
