Trump Targets Texas Congressman Chip Roy for 2026 Primary Challenge, Calls Him 'Weak' in Spending Bill Battle
Dec 19, 2024, 07:48 PM
Former President Donald Trump has publicly targeted Texas Congressman Chip Roy, calling for him to face a primary challenge in the upcoming election cycle. In a series of posts on Truth Social, Trump described Roy as 'weak' and 'ineffective,' expressing hope that 'talented challengers' will emerge to contest Roy's seat. Trump's criticism stems from Roy's previous support for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis during the presidential election, which has led to tensions within the Republican Party. Trump emphasized that 'Republican obstructionists have to be done away with,' indicating dissatisfaction with Roy's actions, particularly in relation to the spending bill negotiations. This marks a notable shift in Trump's focus as he seeks to consolidate support among GOP members ahead of the 2026 elections.
