Trump Rebukes Conservative Critics of Iran War

US President Donald Trump has lashed out at four prominent figures on the US conservative scene who have criticized him over the war against Iran.

Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens and Alex Jones do not, in his view, represent the real MAGA movement but rather a group of commentators trying to gain attention through controversial statements and cheap publicity.

In a lengthy post on Truth Social, he launched personal attacks, questioning their intelligence and professional backgrounds and recalling earlier failures or scandals. At the same time, he said his tough stance on Iran, particularly on the issue of Tehran’s nuclear ambitions, has the support of his voter base.

All four commentators have long been among Trump’s supporters. The dispute reportedly reflects divergent views on foreign policy and the direction of the MAGA movement.

Such internal divisions may complicate matters for the Republican Party ahead of the congressional elections in November.
