Trump's efforts to re-elect were stumbling further, as the descendants of prominent Republicans increasingly disagreed with him.

In the 2016 US presidential election, Donald Trump won a resounding victory by beating in the Republican presidential primaries, Jeb Bush, the 41st president of the US president's son and younger brother.

But even so, President Trump still faces resistance from the trio of "descendants" of the most powerful and influential members of the Republican Party.

The first of these three was Larry Hogan, governor of Maryland, who publicly expressed frustration with the way President Trump responded to the most powerful Covid-19 pandemic.

Instead, he filled out the ballot in the name of his late father, Senator Lawrence J. Hogan, the only Republican member to vote on all three terms of dismissal consideration for President Richard M

The second was Wyoming Republican Liz Cheney, the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney.

She openly expressed support for Army Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman, who testified in the Trump recall review investigation last year, and Anthony Fauci, America's leading epidemiologist, advising the government in

Utah State Senator Mitt Romney, the Republican presidential candidate in 2012, the third member of the group, did not hesitate to show opposition to Trump in a series of events.

Romney is the only Republican to vote in favor of a provision to consider dismissing Trump in the Senate.

Romney is older and is entering the last stage of his political career in the Senate.

"I have learned that if you do not follow your conscience it will haunt you very long," Romney said.

The elite group against Trump also includes former US President George W. Bush and his younger brother Jeb Bush.

According to historian Jon Meacham, family history and reputation are the driving force for the Republican elite group to speak more drastically to Trump.

For Governor Larry Hogan, the fact that his father overcame challenges and went against a large number of other Republicans in the past Nixon dismissal review vote was clearly a great source of inspiration for him to act.

"My father paid a heavy price," Hogan said in an interview, referring to the criticism his father had received after voting in favor of the Nixon dismissal review terms.

"He lost all his friends in parliament, he lost the support of his allies and he angered the White House," Hogan said.

However, according to Governor Hogan, history has sided with his father.

Unlike Senator Romney, Senator Liz Cheney's career prospects are wide open.

Cheney was especially clever when criticizing Trump and always tried not to be too alienated with him.

At 79, he is still his daughter's closest adviser, the third in the Republican ranks in the House of Representatives.

The message is considered subtle criticism towards Trump, who always refuses to wear a mask.

Oklahoma Republican Senator Tom Cole said Cheney, like her father, had a foreign policy view that was more in line with the Republican traditional view and opposed to the "unlike anyone" style of the Republic.

Last year, at an event in Georgia, Dick Cheney talking to Vice President Mike Pence did not hide his doubts about US foreign policy.

"We are in a position where our friends and allies around the world, the people we need to rely on, are losing faith in us," he said.

But no attack from father and son Cheney caused the White House to respond.

For his part, Senator Romney insists he is not as concerned about how history remembers him as what his family thinks of him.

"I just started with jobs in the Senate," Romney said.
