Trump takes his runner with Representative Republican Thomas Massi to a new level
Written by Scott Blander
Donald Trump has been internally irritated by Donald Trump for years, but he was unprecedented that the president truly tried to try to truly try the Republic of Kentucky in the introductory elections. yet.
Two senior political advisers in Trump The launch of Super Pac is dedicated to the opposition diamond In the 2026 preliminary elections, after Massi criticized American strikes in Iran this week. Trump and Diamonds have also traded criticism on social media over the past 48 hours, with Trump Publishing on social truth“Get this” Boom “from the office, as soon as possible !!!” And Massie Say on x The president’s actions are not “American first”.
But the formation of the new political group is a step further than Trump has been despite the last annoyance with Massi, and often “no” vote, is inspired by liberation even when most of the House of Representatives support the Republican Party-such as a vote last month to advance Trump package tax and spending.
It is scheduled to be one of the early tests for the next year of Trump’s case against the Republican Party, the power of the Political War Fund, which continues to accumulate, although it is limited for the duration, and the remaining ability to copy it from top to bottom of the Republican Party to maintain any preposition locally.
Before this electoral cycle, it was Diamond Defending Trump’s anger on several other high -level occasionsIncluding early relief efforts in 2020, when Trump described him as “a coach in the third period” on social media.
Massi was one of a handful of Republicans in the House of Representatives who supported the governor of Florida Ron Desantis to Trump in the 2024 preliminary elections as well. Once again, Trump’s anger has stopped because of this effective support for the basic opponent.
Now, though, it seems that the inconvenience of the president will go down to Massi with his money and perhaps even this strong support, if the Trump team can find a reliable competitor this time. Massi uses Trump’s opposition as an opportunity to collect donations on his own, but it will not rise to anything that Trump can broadcast in Kentucky against him.
like Jonathan Allen notesTrump targeted Republican occupations in the preliminary elections before. The most prominent of which is, in the 2022 electoral session, which sought to expel the legislators from the Republican Party who voted to dismiss it after the attack on January 6, 2021, on the American Capitol. Ultimately, eight Republicans in the House of Representatives have lost preliminary or refused to seek to re -elect it.
Last year, Trump supported John McGuero Successful basic challenge To Virginia Bob Jude, who was the head of the Freedom Council at the time.

This announcement came hours after Iran launched a missile strike against the air base in Qatar, which lands thousands of American forces, in response to the United States bombing its nuclear sites during the weekend.
Trump was He said that No Americans were harmed and that “hardly had any harm.” He added that Iran gave an “early notice” to the attack.
