Trump allies say the allegations have made Miller a political liability as Republicans cite a public custody dispute and call for his resignation.
- President Donald Trump called Rep. Max Miller on Monday to question whether the lawmaker can defeat his Democratic challenger in November, warning that his reelection campaign is "not looking good."
