Former President Donald Trump has called on Senate Republicans to ditch talks with Democrats on a bipartisan infrastructure deal until the GOP can retake majorities in Congress.

As Senate negotiators attempt to finalize a deal on the infrastructure bill, which is believed to be around $1 trillion, Trump said that GOP lawmakers “are being absolutely savaged by Democrats on the so-called ‘bipartisan’ infrastructure bill,” according to his July 26 statement.
