    | Republicans' drive toward the "big, beautiful bill" is
    | starting to hit some big potholes.

    | Trump's tax cuts, cracks are deepening on critical issues,
    | including Medicaid, food aid and even lower-profile issues

    | including on lifting caps on deductions for state and local
    | taxes.
