“You Put Yourself First, Not America” - Trump Under Fire as GOP Insiders Demand Political Break

In a dramatic political blow, key Republican leaders have turned against Donald Trump, accusing the president of putting his own interests, family, and business empire ahead of the American people and calling for a full break from his influence ahead of the 2026 midterms.

The internal revolt comes after leaked documents and interviews revealed what senior GOP figures describe as a pattern of self-serving decisions during Trump’s presidency, from prioritizing personal business deals to promoting family members into top government roles.

“He didn’t put America first. He put Trump first,” said one high-ranking GOP senator speaking anonymously. “We supported him, defended him but it’s clear now: everything came second to his personal brand.”

The tipping point reportedly came during a private strategy retreat in Florida, where Republican donors and lawmakers reviewed mounting evidence that Trump’s post-presidency actions have hurt the party’s image and electoral future.

Among the grievances:

• Allegations that Trump pressured foreign leaders for deals benefiting his businesses.

• Appointments of close allies and family members to sensitive roles, bypassing more qualified candidates.

• Repeated efforts to challenge democratic institutions and spread disinformation after the 2020 election loss.

In response, several state-level GOP committees are reportedly preparing to cut ties with Trump-aligned PACs, and a growing number of conservative media outlets are distancing themselves from his influence.

“This is a political firing,” said political strategist Claire Mitchell. “The message is clear: The party’s future doesn’t belong to one man. It belongs to the country.”

Trump, meanwhile, has fired back on Truth Social, calling the backlash a “RINO witch hunt” and vowing to stay in the race for 2028 if “the people demand it.”

But as party insiders make moves to sideline him and elevate new conservative voices, Donald Trump faces his most serious rejection yet not from Democrats, but from the very party he once controlled.
