Trump and Republican confront each other during GOP luncheon

Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) and President Donald Trump engaged in a heated confrontation at a Senate GOP luncheon Wednesday, according to multiple political reporters citing insiders at the event.

MS NOW congressional correspondent Mychael Schnell described the scene.

"Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) confronted President Trump over the Iran memorandum of understanding, a source familiar with the lunch conversation tells me @MSNOWNews," Schnell wrote in a post on X.

Trump interrupted Cassidy as he characterized the war as a "blunder," and the two continued exchanging arguments while other senators attempted to intervene.

Trump also criticized Sen. Dave McCormick (R-PA) for missing the previous day's war powers vote, though McCormick was attending a Trump rally and the resolution passed regardless.

According to Semafor's Burgess Everett, an attendee used vulgar language to describe the meeting as "a total cluster."

The confrontation occurred hours after Trump vowed to block a bipartisan affordable housing bill that Congress had passed the night before.
