The Republican Party continues to grapple with how to handle Mr Trump: many blame him for their lacklustre midterm performance but they also realise he still has strong support from his base.
Former US vice president Mike Pence has criticised Donald Trump for dining with a Holocaust-denying white nationalist and the rapper formerly known as Kanye West.
Mr Pence is among a number of Republicans calling on the former US president to apologise for what he has described as"profoundly poor judgement". The group - Mr Trump, Ye and Nick Fuentes, a far-right activist with antisemitic and white nationalist views - met last week at Mar-a-Lago. In an interview with NewsNation on Monday night, Mr Pence said:"President Trump was wrong to give a white nationalist, an antisemite and Holocaust denier, a seat at the table, and I think he should apologise for it.But Mr Pence insisted that Mr Trump is not antisemitic or racist, saying he would not have served as vice president under him if he was.
Other Republicans to criticise Mr Trump include Louisiana senator Bill Cassidy, who said:"President Trump hosting racist antisemites for dinner encourages other racist antisemites.
