A House Republican was said to be “visibly shaken” Monday night, as former President Donald Trump tore into her, and 12 of her GOP colleagues, who voted for the $1 trillion infrastructure bill.

According to the New York Post, Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY) was unnerved by the former president attacking her and 12 other House Republicans at a dinner for the National Republican Congressional Committee on Monday.

From the Post:

Former President Donald Trump ripped 13 congressional Republicans who backed a $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill during a lengthy speech Monday – while one of them, New York Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, listened from the audience.

Malliotakis appeared visibly shaken as Trump railed against her and other Republican House members during the National Republican Congressional Committee dinner, a source told The Post.

Trump previously bashed those House Republicans in a statement released after the House passed the bill.

“All Republicans who voted for Democrat longevity should be ashamed of themselves,” the former president said.

Of the other 12 Republicans who backed the legislation, Reps. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL), Anthony Gonzalez (R-OH), and Tom Reed (R-NY) are not running for re-election.
