Red State GOP Lawmaker Defies Trump on Authority
A Republican from a deep-red state boldly declares "no authority" in standing up to Trump, pushing back against what he sees as overreach in the America First agenda. This defiance highlights growing tensions within the GOP, where some red-state holdouts resist Trump's dominant influence even as he racks up primary wins like Michigan's on February 27.
