Several Senate Republicans are expressing displeasure over President Donald Trump’s public rebuke of Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina. The president berated Tillis on social media last week after the senator said he would not support what Trump called his “big, beautiful bill.” GOP lawmakers say the criticism was unwarranted and risks deepening divisions within the party as legislative negotiations continue. Tillis has not responded publicly to the fresh round of intra-party criticism, and the White House has yet to comment on the senators’ concerns.
