‘MAGA is not happy’: Donald Trump issues warning as ‘Big Beautiful’ Bill stalls
Donald Trump had earlier called the bill the ‘biggest tax cut in history’ and pushed the Republicans to get it past the House.
US President Donald Trump on Wednesday lashed out at his own party members in the House of Representatives as his ‘Big, Beautiful' tax bill stalled in a key procedural vote.
Taking to Truth Social, Trump issued a warning. He said that ‘MAGA’ wasn't happy with the Republicans who voted against the bill, and the action would cost them votes.
“Largest Tax Cuts in History and a Booming Economy vs. Biggest Tax Increase in History, and a Failed Economy. What are the Republicans waiting for??? What are you trying to prove??? MAGA IS NOT HAPPY, AND IT’S COSTING YOU VOTES!!!” Trump wrote in a post.
As many as five Republicans voted no to moving the bill to the House of Representatives floor for debate on Wednesday. The party could only afford to lose three votes.
Trump had earlier called the bill the ‘biggest tax cut in history’ and pushed the Republicans to get it past the House. He has imposed a deadline of July 4 for the bill's signing.
