backing

In its first 100 days, California has challenged the Trump administration multiple times, while backing other litigants against the federal government in even more cases.

Jacob Tananbaum, a resident of the district, told me that he was out protesting because Lawler “thinks of himself as a moderate, but he's been backing this regime of the Donald Trump.”

Pitch@Palace was a start-up competition, founded in 2014, where entrepreneurs would pitch their ideas to possible investors in the hope of winning their backing.

Later this year, the narrow Republican majorities in Congress will attempt to provide the legislative backing for Trump's agenda, but their success is far from guaranteed.

Their financial backing coupled with the Hollywood profile really suggests that anything is possible.
