Top Republicans are increasingly questioning former President Donald Trump’s hold over the party in closed-door meetings, The Washington Post reported.
They have been discussing his influence and fixation on what The Post described as “personal grievances.”
The report cited more than a dozen Republican leaders across the country — including Trump advisors — many of whom spoke with the publication anonymously because of concerns about retribution from Trump.
The report comes amid growing signs of divergence between Trump and some Republican leaders ahead of the midterm elections in November.
