North Carolina Sen. Thom Tillis is one of a growing number of Republicans who believe that President Donald Trump is getting faulty policy guidance from his White House advisers, potentially jeopardizing his legacy and the GOP’s chances of retaining their majority.
Several in the Senate Republican Conference, including those at the top in leadership and across the party’s political spectrum, have been openly questioning several policy pronouncements coming out of the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue, including those that are straining international relations and conservative financial proposals.
Addressing the Senate chamber last week, Tillis said he is going to do “everything I can to point out advice” Trump is being given by people who are not considering the president’s legacy.
