The 10 GOP senators who may break with Trump on emergency

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Trump's decision to declare a national emergency in order to circumvent Congress and secure funds to build a wall on the Mexican border puts him on a collision course with lawmakers from his own party.

No Republican senator has said they will break ranks and vote in favor of a resolution of disapproval that Democrats are expected to bring to the floor, but there are reasons to expect some defections.

A number of Republicans fear Trump’s move will undermine Congress and embolden a future Democratic president to take similar actions.

Here are 10 Republican senators who could vote against the president.

Sen. Susan Collins (Maine)

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (Alaska)

Sen. Thom Tillis (N.C.)

Sen. Lamar Alexander (Tenn.)

Sen. Cory Gardner (Colo.)

Sen. Marco Rubio (Fla.)

Sen. Mitt Romney (Utah)

Sen. Mike Lee (Utah)

Sen. Jerry Moran (Kan.)

Sen. Rand Paul (Ky.)
