Trump Demands Change to Senate Vote, Because HE HATES the Result - Thom Hartmann



Just hours after Trump berated him in a closed-door lunch, Republican Senator Bill Cassidy flipped his vote and helped kill a resolution to rein in the Iran war.

Cassidy had backed the measure on Tuesday. Then Trump reportedly called him a lunatic and told him to sit down. Witnesses say it turned into a shouting match.

Questions are being raised after key Republican senators changed their positions following meetings with the White House, helping defeat a resolution on the Iran conflict.

Can Trump really change a Senate vote after it has been recorded? Yes apparently, dictators can do that. - Aired on 06/25/2026.
