President Donald Trump launched a harsh attack on several prominent conservative media personalities who previously supported him but now oppose his military engagement in Iran, calling them “losers” with “Low IQs” in a lengthy social media post that reveals deepening fractures within his political base.
Trump Names Names in Scathing Post
On his social media platform, Trump singled out Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones by name, declaring they are not truly part of the MAGA movement. The president defended U.S. military involvement in Iran while attacking the influencers who he claims wrongly support allowing Iran to develop nuclear weapons. Trump wrote that these figures have been fighting him for years and suggested their opposition stems from intellectual deficiency rather than principled disagreement.
The president claimed he could win their support anytime he wants but chooses not to return their calls because he remains focused on national and international affairs. This dismissive stance marks a significant departure from his typical relationship with conservative media allies who have amplified his message for years.
Influencers Strike Back Hard
The conservative media figures have responded with unprecedented hostility toward the sitting president. Tucker Carlson condemned Trump’s Easter Sunday threat against Iran as vile on every level during his Monday podcast. Megyn Kelly sparked controversy with her pointed criticism after Trump threatened to kill a whole civilization if Iran failed to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. The escalating rhetoric demonstrates how dramatically the relationship between Trump and his former media champions has deteriorated.
Calls for Removal From Office
The split has grown so severe that some influencers now advocate for Trump’s removal. Alex Jones called for the Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment to declare Trump unable to fulfill his presidential duties and remove him from office. Candace Owens labeled Trump a Mad King and urged Congress to take action against him. These extraordinary statements from once-loyal supporters signal a fundamental realignment within conservative media regarding Middle East military intervention and presidential authority limits.
