đź’¨ Abstract
Indiana Republican senators rejected President Donald Trump's redistricting proposal, dealing him a significant political defeat. Trump's aggressive language and tactics, including insulting senators and applying pressure, backfired. Senators cited constituent disapproval and Trump's tone as reasons for their opposition. The proposed map would have divided Indianapolis to dilute Democratic influence, which was unpopular in rural areas. Despite White House efforts, senators stood firm, with some citing Trump's bullying tactics as a reason for their resistance.
