US President Donald Trump has encountered significant opposition from Republican lawmakers in Congress for the first time in his second term. The dissent arises amid growing public anger and dissatisfaction over the ongoing war, according to a report from Al Jazeera’s Washington correspondent Patty Culhane. The report notes that pressure on the president is intensifying as members of his own party lose patience with his handling of the conflict.

Public sentiment across the United States is largely against the war, with most citizens viewing it as unjustified or unnecessary. Only the faction identifying as 'MAGA Republicans' continues to support the conflict as essential. The discontent has led ordinary Americans to flood congressional offices with calls expressing frustration and demanding accountability.

With midterm elections approaching, this internal party revolt marks Trump’s first major political challenge of his second term, driven by widespread voter anger and eroding support within his own ranks.
