Trump Fires Back at Critics After Election Result

Trump Targets Former Supporters on Truth Social

In a late‑night post, former President Donald J. Trump slammed ex‑backers who have turned against him over the Iran conflict, asserting that recent primary results signal a loss of influence for these critics.

Trump shared an article from Just the News noting that several MAGA leaders—once powerful—now feel their sway fading. The piece highlighted how many former allies have become outspoken opponents of the war in Iran, despite Trump’s pledge to avoid new conflicts.

Key voices in the backlash
• Tucker Carlson branded U.S.‑Israel airstrikes “evil” and accused Israel of pushing the war on its own.
• Megyn Kelly argued that U.S. troops were fighting for Iran or Israel, not the United States.
• Marjorie Taylor‑Greene—once a Trump supporter—warned that his MAGA vision would fail in the midterms, claiming voters are “tired of what she calls a ‘show’” and urging them to confront the reality of war.

Trump responded by reaffirming that MAGA belongs with him, not the critics, and warned those who do not support his agenda are missing out on a “thriving, safe America.”

The exchange underscores growing divisions within the movement and illustrates how political battles can fracture former allies.
