Representatives Tom Barrett of Michigan and Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania stood out by voting with Democrats to limit President Trump\u2019s war powers over Iran, while other swing-district lawmakers, like Representative Jen Kiggans of Virginia, are pressing for a \u201cquick resolution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=5621\">Republican Gets Laughed at Over Take on Trump\u2019s Blonde Companion<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>In the Senate, Republicans last week openly criticized the White House\u2019s emergency request for $70 billion in war funding, demanding that the Pentagon better explain its strategy and clarify reports of critical missile shortages. <\/p>\n<p>During a closed-door briefing, Vice President JD Vance tried to assure GOP senators that reports of severe missile shortages were mere \u201cmisdirection\u201d meant to embolden the enemy. However, several senators in attendance remained unconvinced, privately warning that denying logistical realities leaves candidates defenseless on the campaign trail.<\/p>\n<p>The growing political panic comes as fresh polling data confirms the worst fears of vulnerable Republicans. A new Reuters\/Ipsos poll released Monday shows President Trump\u2019s approval rating has fallen to a career-low 33 percent\u2014with 64 percent of respondents disapproving of his performance, tying the lowest mark of his presidency.<\/p>\n<p>Only 3 in 10 voters approve of his handling of Iran, while an overwhelming 80 percent of Americans, including 71 percent of Republicans, expect U.S. involvement to drag on for an extended period. With Democrats seizing on the numbers to make the war a centerpiece of their midterm campaign messaging, Republicans find themselves trapped between an unyielding White House and an electorate increasingly exhausted by the conflict.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Yet speaking at a political rally in Garden City, New York, President Trump dismissed economic concerns, telling supporters that paying \u201ca tiny little bit more for your gasoline\u201d was a fair price to keep \u201ca very evil country\u201d from obtaining a nuclear weapon. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=5619\">Trump Ballroom Goon\u2019s Secret Kremlin Talks Exposed<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republican lawmakers and strategists are openly fuming as President Donald Trump\u2019s war makes a midterm disaster more and more likely.
