Former Conservative Allies Oppose Iran War, Trump Blasts Them as "Lunatics"

Agence France-Presse reported that Trump wrote in a nearly 500-word social media post: "They are stupid people, they know it themselves, their families know it, and everyone else knows it!"

Trump specifically criticized former Fox News hosts Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly, who have since become independent podcasters; also podcasters and well-known conspiracy theorists Candace Owens and Alex Jones.

All four have criticized Trump over the Iran war, accusing him of abandoning his anti-war campaign promises and, to varying degrees, succumbing to Israeli pressure to launch the war.

These criticisms highlight internal divisions within American conservatives regarding the Iran war, which could pose a significant political risk for Trump's Republican Party ahead of the November midterm elections.

Trump complained: "They are incapable, and they never were! They were all kicked off TV, lost their shows, and are no longer even invited on TV because no one cares about them. They are lunatics, troublemakers, and will say anything to get some 'free' cheap publicity."

Although all four once supported Trump's "Make America Great Again" movement, some of them have clashed with him in the past.

Trump finally said: "These so-called 'commentators' are losers, and always will be!" (Compiled by: Qu Xiangping) 1150410
