Trump unloads on Republican congresswoman over immigration split

President Donald Trump shared more than 13 posts attacking Representative Maria Elvira Salazar on Saturday, escalating a feud with the Florida Republican after she broke with his immigration crackdown earlier this month. Salazar, whose Miami-area district includes many Cuban American and immigrant communities, has publicly distanced herself from hardline deportation policies, drawing sharp criticism from the president and his allies.

Why now: A sitting president publicly attacking a member of his own party over immigration is an unusual intra-GOP rift people are following closely.
