Victoria Spartz denies Trump yelled at her to change budget resolution vote: ‘Complete lie’

Rep. Victoria Spartz (R-IN) pushed back on claims that President Donald Trump yelled at her in a phone conversation to change her vote on a budget resolution, calling the reports “fake news.”

Spartz was among a handful of hard-liner holdouts on the resolution to unlock reconciliation, but a phone call from Trump got the Indiana congresswoman to change her vote. A Puck report detailed that the president was “fuming,” and several members who overheard the conversation told the outlet that Trump screamed at her for being a “fake Republican.”
