Trump slams GOP Sen. Rand Paul for opposing ‘big, beautiful bill’

Tavsif:

President Trump sharply criticized Sen. Rand Paul after Paul opposed the Trump‑backed budget bill’s $5 trillion debt‑ceiling increase. Paul called the hike irresponsible and said he wouldn’t support it, though he supports the tax cuts and spending cuts in the bill. Trump accused Paul of misunderstanding the plan and labeled him a habitual “no” voter with no practical ideas, urging Republicans to back the bill. The budget package, key to Trump’s agenda, includes tax cuts, work requirements for Medicaid, and SNAP reforms, CNBC has reported. The Senate bill’s debt‑ceiling hike faces opposition from several Republicans, with Paul saying he might support the bill if the debt increase is reduced.
