President Donald Trump has called for Republican Representative Chip Roy (TX) to face a primary challenge, accusing him of undermining Republican efforts in the ongoing battle over a newly agreed continuing resolution to fund the government.

In response to the recent collapse of Democrats and Mike Johnson's government spending bill, Congress is now deliberating a new CR called the "American Relief Act of 2024." This proposed legislation aims to prevent a government shutdown, support farmers, and provide disaster relief to communities affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton.

Trump lambasted Roy as a self-serving obstructionist who is jeopardizing a GOP victory for his own gain.

Trump wrote:

CNN reporter Kit Maher confronted Roy about Trump's scathing comments during a Capitol Hill interview.

In response, turncoat Mike Pence defended Chip Roy.

He wrote, "Congressman Chip Roy is one of the most principled conservatives in Washington DC and people across this country are grateful for his stand against runaway federal spending. We just can't keep piling trillions in debt on our children and grandchildren. Thank You Chip Roy."
