Former President Donald J. Trump, using his Truth Social platform, made several posts on July 31, 2025, including a pointed comment about Senator Susan Collins and voting guidance for Republicans.
In a post dated July 31, 2025 at 10:01 PM EST, Trump wrote: "Republicans, when in doubt, vote the exact opposite of Senator Susan Collins. Generally speaking, you can’t go wrong. Thank you for your attention to this matter and, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!".
A subsequent post at the same time referenced a link: "Donald J. Trump Truth Social 07.31.25 10:01 PM EST https://t.co/4uVwYHoo4y".
Later that evening at 10:44 PM EST, he posted another message with a different link: "Donald J. Trump Truth Social 07.31.25 10:44 PM EST https://t.co/t5kUejwcxV".
These statements come amid ongoing debates within the Republican Party regarding legislative priorities and internal divisions over policy direction. Senator Susan Collins has often been seen as a moderate voice within the party and has sometimes voted independently from party leadership on key issues.
