Trump faces mounting pressure as Republicans revolt

President Trump faces pressure from Republicans rebelling against a Trump-backed 'slush fund' and blocking an immigration enforcement funding bill.

Trump has further angered Republicans by challenging establishment favorites in primaries, leading to a 'wounded bear caucus' of outgoing congresspeople.
