Since announcing his decision to retire last year, North Carolina
Republican Sen. Thom Tillis has become a kind of thorn in MAGA’s
side, holding up appointments and voicing criticisms about
legislation favored by President Trump. But his resistance raises a
perennial question about Republicans in the Trump era: Why do
lawmakers only push back when they’re on the way out? Kara and Sen.
Tillis talk about his concerns over the Trump administration’s
handling of the war in Iran; why he thinks newly confirmed
Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin will be an
improvement over his predecessor, Kristi Noem; and why Tillis aims
his criticisms at Trump’s advisers rather than Trump himself. They
also talk about his worries about the upcoming midterms and where
he thinks the party is headed after Trump leaves office.
