Trump Kicks 'Pathetic' GOP Lawmaker Out Of His Movement: 'MAGA Doesn’t Want Him'
HuffPost
The president vowed to campaign against Rep. Thomas Massie for opposing him on Iran, the "big beautiful bill" and more.
President Donald Trump on Sunday slammed Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) in a social media post, decrying the lawmaker as “weak,” “lazy,” and “pathetic” for opposing him on Iran, the “big beautiful bill” and more.
Massie, the president wrote on Truth Social, “is not MAGA, even though he likes to say he is. Actually, MAGA doesn’t want him, doesn’t know him, and doesn’t respect him.”
Massie has a history of incurring Trump’s wrath. He was one of only two GOP members of the House to vote against the president’s signature bill last month, and more recently has been railing against U.S. military involvement in Iran.
On Sunday, he and Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) spoke out against the weekend’s attack on Iran during a joint appearance on “Face The Nation.” The two last week introduced a bipartisan resolution that would prohibit Trump from striking Iran without explicit authorization from Congress.
Massie called the attack on Iran unconstitutional, while Trump dismissed him as “a negative force” and “a simple minded grandstander.”
