At town halls, Republicans feel the heat from Trump and Musk’s firing and cutting spree

Several members of the House of Representatives have overcome major public events while leaving Washington this week. But the Republicans who held the city halls at home obtained an ear.

In events from Georgia Wisconsin to Oklahoma and Oregon, Republicans in the House of Representatives faced sometimes turbulent crowds angry at the full budget and mass extinguishing of the federal workers implemented by President Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

With the House of Representatives returning to the holiday and many legislators to their regions, this week was their first opportunity to hear it directly from the voters about the Trump and burned Moussa strategy to reduce and reduce the federal government’s imprint.

In the city hall in Rosewil, one of the suburbs of Atlanta, Thursday night, the attendees link and talked about Republican Representative Rich McCarmick while he was tired with difficult questions about the cuts – and the way it seems to be apparently heterogeneous.

One man asked McCramek how an employee employee can release National Nuclear Security AdministrationThat protects American nuclear weapons, and other federal employees who were working Flu -influenza outbreak. More than 1,000 workers were lay off Disease control and prevention centersA main employer in Atlanta.

“Why does the supposed conservative party take such a radical, extremist and dirty approach to this?” The man said when the room broke out in applause Videos posted on X Written by Greg Bluestyin, a journalist for Atlanta Journal and a contributor to NBC news.

“A lot of work they do is repetition with artificial intelligence.” “I came back to be a doctor. I know some things, well?”

“If we continue to grow the size of the government, and we cannot afford it, it will have a lack of medical care, the doctor, and social security,” a member of Congress continued. We have to make some decisions. “

At the beginning of the city hall, the McCromic woman, who represents a safe Republican seat outside Atlanta, told Congress to direct the appropriate federal spending, “and not the president, and you are doing taxes to appoint this down and not defense for us.”

McCromic said that many of these cases “will be lit in court,” which prompted more danger.

“But we are angry!” The last of the present shouted.

A sign of more in the future, or “a few critics”?

The controversial city halls can be an early sign of a violent political reaction that comes to the elected Republicans, as thousands of federal workers across the country begin to obtain pink vouchers and the Americans begin Feel the effectIt is also produced by the Republican Party, which is controlled by the Republican Party For Trump and Musk.

One of the Republican lawmakers said that it seems that the voters who have been “calm” since Joe Biden’s victory for 2020 have returned to power.

“It seems very quickly that it seems to be common,” the legislator continued. “You need to review each program, section, or agency first, then make calculated decisions. But in general, it is now frustrated by lack of clarity.”

Some Republicans in the House of Representatives hosted virtual or remote halls, which can be managed more easily. However, in the few unborn city halls throughout the country this week, the Republican Party lawmakers were in a defensive state where they were interrogated about collective shooting and Possible future discounts to Medicaid.

In West Bend and Wisconsin, Republican MP Scott Fitzgerald faced many difficult questions in the city hall on Thursday, including the present Michael Weetj, who kept a remarkable reading, “The presidents are not kings.”

“Are you going to invite him at some point? Are you ready to use your summoning salad to tell Musk by standing in front of Congress and answering some difficult questions?” He asked Wittj, according to A. Report from WTMJNBC News Affiliate in Milwoki.

This same question appeared in Glinpol, Oklahoma, where the attendees told MP Kevin Herne, a member of the Republican Party leadership, that he was not doing his work standing at the executive branch. “We see the administration undermining Congress,” she told the mother who has a child in her lap News9 in Oklahoma City. “Will you invite Elon Musk to testify under the oath to explain what he is doing?” Another present asked.

And on a City Hall in Baker, OregonA man who knew himself was Terry Strommer, an old warrior from Oxpo, in the Republican Republican Cleef Pentiz, that his office was not responding when he raised concerns about musk.

“I will only ask you, if you think he is doing it correctly. Do you want all your own records that have been revealed and withdrawn by a group of people who have not been elected, they were randomly appointed, a group of children between the ages of 20 years “The man said. “I know that when I was in service, there was a series of driving and we answered someone. I don’t see him answering anyone.”

Pentles defended Musk, describing him as a “global absolute expert” who can fix the “old systems” of the government. Some laughed at the crowd from the description of Bentis.

The loud halls of the city evoked the memories of those in 2009 – the beginning of the tea party – when the voters protested the massive health care bill for Democrats, which became the law of care at reasonable prices.

The following year, the Republican Wave in the House of Representatives gave an amazing profit from 63 seats and washed away the Democrats from power. Democrats hope that the tangible frustration will be speeding for them in the middle of next year, although the details of the modern home battlefield, which is formed by two rounds of re -dividing the circles since 2010, make this type of Republican tsunami installed them that is difficult to repeat.

At this turn, some Republicans also wonder how deep the reaction in the cities halls in Congress.

“I love the way that the media takes some critics when the overwhelming response from the American people is to support what this administration does,” said the White House press secretary Caroline Levitte in response to questions from NBC news.

“There should be no secret about the fact that this administration is committed to cutting waste, fraud and abuse. .

However, a Republican strategic expert on the front lines of the tea party wave said that he sees an early glimmer of a similar phenomenon now, as the Republican Party has faced voters anger at the economic situation in the same way as the Democratic Trevikta achieved in 2009.

“The republican mandate that came out of the 2024 elections was completely clear: tackling the increasing cost of living in America,” said Kane, Spain, who served as director of communications in the Republic campaign in 2009 and 2010. Be for the republican base, most voters are not naturally associated with reducing the size of the federal workforce and their pocket books strongly. “

Spain also said that Republicans still have time to avoid indulging as Democrats did in 2010.

“We are one month in the new administration, so it is too early to start attracting immediate similarities to the 2009 Tea Party protests, but Republicans must connect to the burns between their actions and the concrete economic benefits of the working class,” said Spain. “Otherwise, can The 2009 echoes become the highest voice. “

Voters interact

Recent surveys show some possible danger to the Republicans due to Trump’s early behavior, especially his efforts to alleviate the ranks of the federal workforce.

The narrow majority of American adults in voting from CNN and Washington Post/Ipsos They said they believed that Trump was overlooked as a president.

Both opinion polls also found a majority that does not agree to its attempts to close the United States Agency for International Development. The survey survey found that 58 % opposed its efforts to get rid of large numbers of federal government workers.

Jesse Ferguson, veteran democratic expert who worked in home races during the Obama era, said he sees similarities in the 2018 session, when Trump faced a violent reaction in the middle of the period.

He said: “Republicans eat heat because people feel that things are out of control and see that the Republican Party has become responsible for the problem instead of being part of the solution.” “When life abroad feels control, the last thing you want is Trump and Moussa generates everything you depend on.”

Ferguson said: “In 2010, the Democrats felt reactions to possess the current current situation, and in 2018, the Republicans felt a violent coolness for trying to stay away from important things,” Ferguson said. “In 2025, Republicans can do the two things.”

One of the prominent political questions is whether the voters take any frustration over these measures on the largely unable Democrats as well.

Stalled in the minority in Congress, the House of Representatives and Democrats Protest against shooting and cuttingHolding gatherings and in some cases they face security personnel outside the Federal Agency buildings throughout Washington. But some Democrats also feel the heat of voters who urged them to fight more strongly against Musk’s efforts.

In a crowded municipal hall in Albani, New York, a man from Democratic Representative Paul Tonko told that he had seen a member of Congress on television in protest against the discounts in the National Oceanic and Air Calle Department and the Ministry of Education. But Tonco called for more effort because musk and the Republicans “do not play with the rules.”

The man said, according to The video was posted on Facebook. When he turned on the TV, “I was very proud that my representative was on the front line. But I thought about Jimmy Carter and thought about John Lewis, and I know what John Lewis would do. Day.

“Make them prohibit you,” continued while applause is louder. “We will stand behind you, we will be with you. I will be caught with you.”
