期待唐纳德·特朗普总统前往国会山与参议院共和党人共进午餐时，他们能备好了胃药和止泻药。
参议院共和党政策委员会主席、佛罗里达州联邦参议员里克·斯科特于周三邀请特朗普出席午餐会。一些参议院共和党议员可能会暗自嘀咕：他们自己才是这场饭局上的“主菜”。此前特朗普拒绝背书路易斯安那州联邦参议员比尔·卡西迪和得克萨斯州联邦参议员约翰·康宁，导致二人在初选中落败，现已退出政坛。特朗普还与参议院多数党领袖、南达科他州联邦参议员约翰·图恩发生争执，因不满对方无法落实自己的立法议程而大为光火。
斯科特是总统的亲密盟友。他在2024年末的多数党领袖选举中输给了图恩和康宁。事实上，斯科特甚至没有征求参议院共和党高层领导团队的同意，就直接邀请了总统。
斯科特与犹他州联邦参议员迈克·李联合倡议，要求参议院通过《拯救美国法案》，该法案要求选民必须提供公民身份证明才能投票。这一主张让图恩和其他共和党高层头疼不已，因为该法案已两次投票失败。斯科特和李希望参议院集中精力推进《拯救美国法案》，直至其通过。但几乎没人明白，通过持续施压到底如何才能突然凑够参议院多数票支持该法案。
共和党触发参议院马拉松式辩论，曝光民主党反对特朗普支持的选民身份证法案

此外，总统还要求他们废除 filibuster（议事阻挠规则，即冗长辩论）。如果《拯救美国法案》没有足够票数通过，那么要获得60票打破议事阻挠根本不可能。
简单的解决方案，对吧？
其实不然。图恩也曾多次表示，目前也没有足够票数修改议事阻挠规则。
这就是数学问题。
因此，周三的讨论势必异常激烈，核心议题将是总统要求参议院推进的各项事宜。图恩已多次尝试向总统解释，基于各种议会规则，参议院实际能做到哪些事。
共和党内部还存在担忧：如果民主党拿下众议院和/或参议院多数席位，而共和党又未能通过《拯救美国法案》，总统可能会试图抹黑中期选举的结果。
特朗普在参议院拥有众多支持者，但近几周来，他多次打乱本党立法节奏，令参议院共和党人倍感挫败。
今年5月，参议院原本即将启动“投票马拉松”，最终通过移民海关执法局和边境巡逻队的拨款法案。随后政府宣布设立“武器化监管基金”。代理司法部长托德·布兰奇与共和党参议员的会谈演变成激烈交锋，布兰奇仍在为该基金辩护。一些共和党议员威胁要在投票马拉松期间提出自己的修正案，要么阻挠该基金获批，要么让自己免受政治牵连。
图恩随后将法案从议会议程中撤回，让全体议员休会超过一周。

随后，两党精心达成一项协议，续期外国情报监控法第702条——这是美国追踪恐怖分子最有效的项目之一。但在总统搁置了自己提名的国家情报总监（DNI）人选杰伊·克莱顿的提名后，该授权法案未能获得通过。
共和党无法独自通过外国情报监控法授权法案，因此与民主党达成了两党妥协协议。但在总统宣布住房事务主任比尔·普尔泰将接替辞职的图尔西·加巴德担任代理国家情报总监后，民主党撤回了对该法案的支持。民主党认为普尔泰是党派人士，毫无情报工作经验。特朗普提名克莱顿后，参议院情报委员会主席、阿肯色州联邦参议员汤姆·科顿迅速安排了克莱顿的确认听证会。
当时外界认为，参议院可能会在克莱顿的确认听证会结束后几天内完成任命，这样普尔泰的代理任期就会很短。一旦克莱顿上任，参议院就能重新推进两党达成的外国情报监控法协议并完成投票。
但上周特朗普彻底打乱了这一计划。他要求参议院共和党人取消克莱顿的确认听证会，暂停其提名流程，直至确认杰米·麦克唐纳出任纽约南区联邦检察官——这正是克莱顿此前担任的职位。总统在美国东部时间周三凌晨3:59提出了这些要求，且未与图恩进行任何沟通。
随后他又将签署外国情报监控法续期法案与《拯救美国法案》的通过绑定。
“这说明他对外国情报监控法或情报工作根本没那么上心，”一位资深国会共和党人谈及特朗普时说道，“而普尔泰的任命，就是对情报界的公然挑衅。”
因此，参议院共和党人对这些要求并不买账。在特朗普放弃对卡西迪和康宁的支持后，一些人就已对总统失去信心。如今他们认为总统行事不讲道理，随意摆弄图恩，为关键的国家安全立法不断改变标准，还要求参议院去做根本不可能完成的事，比如通过《拯救美国法案》和废除议事阻挠规则。
而斯科特则认为，他和总统能够改变其他人的想法。
特朗普近期一直在批评参议院共和党领导层，但一直小心翼翼地不直接点名图恩。图恩在共和党同僚中口碑很好，和大多数国会领袖一样，这份工作难度极大。正如前参议院多数党领袖、密西西比州联邦参议员特伦特·洛特所言，这份工作就像“赶猫”一样。
图恩“坚决”支持特朗普，尽管过往关系紧张，仍推动“让美国再次伟大”议程

显然，与图恩相比，总统目前与众议院议长、路易斯安那州联邦参议员迈克·约翰逊的关系更好。但如果直接公开指责图恩，势必会激怒总统在参议院的一众核心盟友。
特朗普此前曾频繁抨击前参议院多数党领袖、肯塔基州联邦参议员米奇·麦康奈尔不肯废除议事阻挠规则。但正是麦康奈尔为特朗普促成了三项影响最深远的司法任命：最高法院大法官尼尔·戈萨奇、布雷特·卡瓦诺和艾米·科尼·巴雷特。
麦康奈尔为确认戈萨奇的席位设立了新的参议院先例。若按原规则，戈萨奇将面临美国历史上前所未有的最高法院大法官提名冗长辩论，根本不可能获得确认。
2018年秋季，在卡瓦诺饱受争议的确认程序期间，麦康奈尔始终站在他一边。随后他在2020年大选前几天强行推动了科尼·巴雷特的确认流程。然而，麦康奈尔因时任总统为选举年，耗时近11个月未为巴拉克·奥巴马总统提名的最高法院大法官、未来的司法部长梅里克·加兰安排确认听证会。阻止加兰的确认，为戈萨奇的任命留出了席位。但特朗普仍对麦康奈尔百般指责。
图恩去年推动通过了《宏大法案》（One Big Beautiful Bill Act）。但即便没有自身失误，图恩至今也未能像麦康奈尔为特朗普促成最高法院任命那样，为特朗普取得如此持久的立法成果。不过，尽管总统批评了共和党参议院领导层，仍对这位南达科他州共和党人保持了一定的宽容。

我们将在周三的午餐会后看看这种宽容能否延续。
过去几周总统与参议院共和党人之间的立法争执，不过是开胃小菜。周三的午餐会上，痛苦与沮丧才是主菜。如果会面进展不顺，一些共和党议员可能会大喊“结账，谢谢”，尽快逃离现场。

Hope they have Maalox and Pepto-Bismol on hand when President Donald Trump visits Capitol Hill to meet with Senate Republicans over lunch.
Senate GOP Steering Committee Chairman and Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., invited Trump for the luncheon Wednesday. Some Senate Republicans may wonder if they’re the ones on the menu. Both Sens. Bill Cassidy, R-La., and John Cornyn, R-Texas, are out after the president refused to endorse them and they lost their primaries. Trump has also sparred with Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., exasperated that he can’t execute his legislative agenda.
Scott is a close ally of the president. He lost to Thune and Cornyn in the race to become majority leader in late 2024. In fact, Scott didn’t even request a blessing from the top Senate GOP leadership team to invite the president.
Scott teamed up with Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, advocating that the Senate approve the SAVE America Act. It requires proof of citizenship to vote. This advocacy is driving Thune and other members of the GOP brass batty since the bill failed twice. Scott and Lee want the Senate to get onto the SAVE America Act and stay on it until the measure passes. But few understand how exhaustion somehow conjures a majority of senators to suddenly support the bill.
GOP TRIGGERS MARATHON SENATE FIGHT TO EXPOSE DEMS’ OPPOSITION TO TRUMP-BACKED VOTER ID BILL

Moreover, the president demands that they eliminate the filibuster. If the SAVE America Act doesn’t have the necessary votes to pass, there’s no way it commands 60 yeas to break a filibuster.
Simple solution, right?
Not really. Thune has said repeatedly that there aren’t the votes to alter the filibuster, either.
It’s about the math.
So expect some intense discussions Wednesday over what the president wants the Senate to do. Thune has tried to tell the president repeatedly what the Senate is capable of, based on the various parliamentary equations.
And there’s fear among Republicans that the president may attempt to sow discord about the midterm election outcomes if Democrats flip the House and/or Senate — and Republicans never passed the SAVE America Act.
Trump sports plenty of supporters in the Senate, but he’s frustrated Senate Republicans by repeatedly yanking the legislative rug out from under his own party for weeks now.
The Senate was on the precipice of beginning a “vote-a-rama” to finally pass funding for ICE and Border Patrol in May. Then the administration announced its weaponization fund. A meeting between acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and GOP senators devolved into pointed conversations. Blanche continued to defend the fund. Some Republicans threatened their own amendments during the vote-a-rama to either block the fund or shield themselves from political fallout.
Thune pulled the bill from the floor and sent everyone home for more than a week.
SENATE GOP ERUPTS OVER TRUMP DOJ ‘ANTI-WEAPONIZATION’ FUND, PUNTS ICE, BORDER PATROL FUNDING

Then there was a carefully crafted bipartisan agreement to renew FISA Section 702, the nation’s most effective program to track terrorists. Its authorization ran out after the president sidetracked the nomination of Jay Clayton, his own pick to become director of national intelligence (DNI).
Republicans couldn’t pass the FISA authorization on their own, so they engineered a bipartisan compromise with Democrats. But Democrats withdrew their support for the bill once the president announced that housing czar Bill Pulte would take over as acting DNI for Tulsi Gabbard, who resigned. Democrats viewed Pulte as a partisan who had no experience in intelligence. Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Tom Cotton, R-Ark., quickly scheduled a confirmation hearing for Jay Clayton once Trump tapped him as the nominee.
It was believed that the Senate may be able to confirm Clayton within a matter of days after his confirmation hearing. That would limit time on the job by Pulte. So, once Clayton was in place, the Senate could prospectively return to the bipartisan FISA deal and pass it.
But Trump detonated all of that last week. He insisted that Senate Republicans cancel Clayton’s confirmation hearing and not advance his nomination until it has confirmed Jamie McDonald as U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York. That’s the position Clayton held. The president made those demands at 3:59 a.m. ET Wednesday — all without consulting Thune.
He then made his signature on the FISA renewal conditional on passage of the SAVE America Act.
“That tells me he’s not very serious about FISA or intelligence,” said one senior congressional Republican about Trump. “And Pulte is a big middle finger to the intelligence community.”
So Senate Republicans aren’t enamored with all of these demands. Some began to lose faith in the president once he ditched support for Cassidy and Cornyn. Now they believe he’s being unreasonable, jerking around Thune, moving the goalposts for critical national security legislation and expecting the impossible on the SAVE America Act and the filibuster.
For his part, Scott believes he and the president can change minds.
Trump has criticized Senate Republican leaders generally of late. But he’s tiptoed around potentially calling out Thune by name. Thune is well-liked by his GOP colleagues and, like most congressional leaders, has an impossible job. That is why former Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott, R-Miss., likened the job to that of “herding cats.”
THUNE ‘ADAMANT’ ABOUT TRUMP SUPPORT, DRIVING MAGA AGENDA DESPITE TENSE PAST RELATIONSHIP

It’s clear that the president has better relations right now with House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., compared to Thune. But turning on Thune by name would truly infuriate many of the president’s best allies in the Senate.
Trump routinely excoriated former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., for not ditching the filibuster. But it was McConnell who delivered Trump three of the most lasting legacies: Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett.
McConnell established a new Senate precedent for the method he used to confirm Gorsuch. Gorsuch would have faced an unprecedented filibuster for an associate justice on the high court and never scored confirmation.
McConnell stuck by Kavanaugh during his raucous confirmation process in the fall of 2018. And he rammed through Coney Barrett’s confirmation days before the 2020 election. Yet McConnell refused to hold a confirmation hearing for President Barack Obama’s Supreme Court nominee, future Attorney General Merrick Garland, for nearly 11 months — because it was an election year. Blocking confirmation of Garland held the seat open for Gorsuch. Yet Trump railed against McConnell at every turn.
Thune passed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act last year. But through no fault of his own, Thune hasn’t delivered any wins as enduring as the Supreme Court for Trump yet. However, the president has extended some grace to the South Dakota Republican — despite his criticism of the Republican Senate.

We’ll see if that continues after Wednesday’s luncheon.
The legislative contretemps between the president and Senate Republicans over the past few weeks has just been an appetizer. Anguish and frustration are on the bill of fare Wednesday. And if the meeting doesn’t go well, some Republicans may yell “Check, please!” to get out of there as fast as they can.
