Maga's biggest names are in a fury right now,

because the Senate parliamentarian has delivered a big blow to GOP hopes of passing President Donald Trump's big budget bill.

Marjorie Taylor Green unleashed an extraordinary rant on Twitter in which she actually threatened

to vote no on his bill because of what the parliamentarian has done to it.

All this comes as Trump is getting hit with some of the very worst polling of his second

term. We think Trump will

probably get his bill in the end, but the bill itself is incredibly unpopular. Trump is caught in

this bizarre dynamic in which he badly needs wins, but the wins themselves are only likely to make

his standing worse. Today we're talking about all this with journalist Sarah Posner, who just wrote for Talking

Points memo that the public is souring on just about every one of Trump's big initiatives.

Sarah, thanks for coming on.

Thanks for having me, Greg.

Let's start with Trump's big bill.

The Senate parliamentarian just ruled that a number of the big provisions can't stay in it

if Republicans want to pass it via a 50 vote threshold in the reconciliation process. Those provisions

include major cuts to Medicaid, some policies targeting undocumented immigrants, some anti-trans stuff,

and a bunch of other things. What's critical is that Republicans need some of those policies

to get the quote-unquote savings they need to fund tax cuts for the rich.

So this is a major problem for them.

And yet Senate Majority Leader John Thune says Republicans won't ignore the parliamentarian.
