When does a conservative lawmaker become moderate? After they disagree with Trump
Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., speaks to a reporter before a weekly Republican policy luncheon at the U.S. Capitol on June 3 in Washington, D.C. Tillis announced he would not run for reelection in 2026 after voting against President Trump
