Trump Urges GOP Holdouts to Back Budget Plan Amid Internal Divide

President Trump is pressuring House Republicans to support a Senate-approved budget resolution, emphasizing its importance for advancing his economic agenda. During a speech at the National Republican Congressional Committee dinner, he urged dissenting members to 'stop grandstanding' and warned that failure to pass the bill would be disastrous for the party and the country. House Republicans are pushing for deeper spending cuts, with some demanding as much as $2 trillion, while the Senate version proposes only $4 billion in reductions. The GOP leadership, including House Speaker Mike Johnson, is racing against time to secure enough votes before a two-week recess. Critics within the party express concerns over increasing national debt and the implications of Trump's proposed budget, which they feel does not adequately address fiscal responsibility. As tensions grow, the outcome remains uncertain with at least ten House Republicans signaling they will not support the budget framework.
