Former President Donald Trump raised concerns about the status of Rep. Max Miller’s campaign during a call with the Ohio Republican, according to CBS News. The conversation comes as allegations of abuse involving Miller have drawn increased public and political attention.
Miller has faced allegations from his ex-wife, and her lawyer has filed for a restraining order, according to reports cited in coverage of the controversy. The claims have not been established in court, and the available reports do not provide a final legal determination regarding them.
Miller has not stepped aside from his campaign, despite calls from some Republican senators for him to leave the race. Their public reactions reflect growing concern within the party over how the allegations could affect Miller’s political future and the broader campaign.
The episode has also prompted wider discussion about how political parties and candidates respond to allegations involving family and domestic abuse. Trump’s call indicates that the issue has reached the highest levels of Republican political circles, while further legal and campaign developments remain pending.
