President Trump is ramping up his threats against lawmakers and states that do not bend to his demands. In a recent move, the Trump administration has threatened to cut millions of dollars in federal funding from three states that refuse to comply with new English language rules for truckers.
This latest threat comes on the heels of Trump's push to sue a top GOP Senator for not following Senate rules on nominees, known as blue slips. The President is showing a willingness to use legal action and financial pressure to get his way.
Critics of Trump's tactics argue that he is overstepping his bounds and violating the principles of democracy. However, supporters see his tough stance as a way to hold others accountable and enforce the rules.
As tensions continue to escalate between the Trump administration and lawmakers, it remains to be seen how far the President is willing to go to enforce his rules and get his agenda passed. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
