Deadly Minnesota shooting ramps up first period of pushback on Trump 2.0

President Donald Trump is finally experiencing some serious pushback after nearly a year of the world largely bowing to his every desire.

It started with skeptical American oil executives. Then came fed-up European and Canadian leaders. And now even Republican lawmakers are expressing frustration with the administration following a deadly Saturday shooting of a protester in Minneapolis by a federal immigration agent — the second such killing this month.

Trump has responded to the horrific shooting, caught on camera by multiple witnesses, by doubling down on his mass deportation policies. He’s tried to link the Minneapolis unrest to a statewide fraud scandal while ramping up his attacks on Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar and sending border czar Tom Homan to take over federal immigration enforcement efforts in Minnesota.
