'Losers.' Trump jabs MAGA media figures critical of his Iran threats

Summary: President Donald Trump is in a heated feud with some of his biggest media supporters over his recent threats against Iran. After Trump posted that an entire civilization could be wiped out, famous conservative voices like Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones strongly pushed back. Carlson called the threats a moral crime, while Kelly asked if the president could just behave normally.

The situation got so tense that Jones compared Trump to an unhinged Marvel comic supervillain. Owens and Jones even brought up the 25th Amendment—a rule used when a president is medically or mentally unable to do the job—with Owens joking that it might be time to put "Grandpa" in a retirement home. Trump fired back, calling the hosts "losers" who are just looking for cheap fame and saying they do not represent his true voters. Despite the loud media fight, polls show that 73% of Republicans still support Trump's handling of the situation. A ceasefire with Iran has since been announced.
