President Donald Trump dropped a bombshell this morning, canceling plans to sign a landmark housing affordability bill until he gets action on his controversial elections overhaul legislation.

Trump’s insistence on the “SAVE America Act” — threatening to tank a major political win on affordability — drew quick backlash from some congressional Republicans. Some wondered why the president was sabotaging their carefully coordinated strategy to show voters that they are working on cost-of-living issues ahead of the midterms.

CNN’s chief Congressional correspondent Manu Raju reports from Capitol Hill, and CNN’s Dana Bash covers the implications of Trump’s sudden move with her Inside Politics panel.
