And I think a pretty serious fissure going on in MAGA world.
I mean, last night, Trump's
meltdown.
He had this 500-word true social rant going off on key right-wing figures who were questioning his Iran strategy, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Alex Jones, Candace Owens, Megyn Kelly, and Tucker Carlson.
Basically said, if you're not fully on board with Trump's war posture, you're out and apparently also low IQ.
I mean, he's been saying low IQ about a lot of people.
I think he just calls me an idiot and has never said low IQ.
But let's listen to Alex Jones responding to Trump's attacks.
Okay, I just gotta say, like,
Alex Jones, you are a supervillain for what you did to those Sandy Hook families.
So I have a lot of trouble, you know, going with Alex Jones on some sort of higher ground.
But how much credence do you give to what he's saying?
Well, I mean, Megyn Kelly did say earlier this week that, like, a Republican could drop a nuke and she would still vote for them.
So there is some true believing in voting conservative.
Well, that's where I think that this actually has some legs because these MAGA, I don't want to call them thought leaders, feels very generous.
But you know what I mean.
These personalities are getting feedback from their audiences and they're giving them more of what the audience is telling them that they're feeling and picking up, you know, concerns in the comments or call-ins or however they're getting it.
So it's clearly not coming from nowhere.
And you have Marjorie Taylor.
Right.
