Former President Donald Trump told Rep. Max Miller that his congressional candidacy is in trouble, according to Axios. The reported warning comes as Miller faces mounting political scrutiny and uncertainty over his campaign.
The pressure appears linked in part to allegations of domestic abuse that have drawn attention from Republican critics and other media outlets. The available reports do not establish the outcome of the allegations, but they have intensified calls within Republican circles for Miller to reconsider his bid or leave the race.
Several Republican senators have reportedly raised concerns about the accusations, while at least one Republican lawmaker has said Miller should not serve in Congress. The criticism has added to questions about whether Miller can maintain support from party leaders and voters.
The controversy has also prompted speculation that another Republican could seek the seat if Miller withdraws. For now, the reports describe a candidacy facing significant political headwinds, with its future dependent on how the allegations and the party’s response develop.
