We gauged where senators stand in relation to President Trump on a wide range of controversial issues: Whether they supported or criticized Trump’s firing of FBI Director James B. Comey in May, whether they supported or criticized the Senate’s unpopular repeal plan for the Affordable Care Act in July, and whether they supported or criticized a proposed budget Trump released in May. We also looked at a senator’s overall rhetoric toward Trump since he was inaugurated, and how they reacted to Trump’s comments on the Charlottesville protests.
We will continue to update this graphic with new issues and as the relationships between the president and these senators evolve.
