Republicans face voter anger over Trump administration's agenda
Two Republicans faced tough questions from voters about their support for the Trump administration. One was Representative Harriet M. Hageman, who spoke in Afton, Wyoming, to a crowd that included many of her supporters. Before she even started her speech, people expressed their worries. A retired woman asked about possible cuts to Social Security. Hageman quickly assured her, “Nobody is touching Social Security.” The following night, another town hall meeting took place in Evanston, about 100 miles south. There, a retired miner named Scott Flint challenged Hageman on how Trump’s policies affected his community. He mentioned the closure of a local office that helps with mine safety. Flint warned that if Trump and tech leader Elon Musk continued on their current paths, they would face issues similar to those experienced by companies after large layoffs. The events showed a mix of support and concern for the Republican agenda among voters.
