WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump invited a primary challenge against U.S. Rep. Chip Roy on Thursday for his opposition to raising the debt ceiling without stringent restrictions on future spending, calling the Austin Republican an “obstructionist.”
“The very unpopular “Congressman” from Texas, Chip Roy, is getting in the way, as usual, of having yet another Great Republican Victory - All for the sake of some cheap publicity for himself. Republican obstructionists have to be done away with,” Trump posted on his social media platform.
