A full-blown MAGA meltdown erupted Thursday after Donald Trump launched a bizarre and deeply personal tirade against some of his own most loyal allies — prompting stunned backlash from within his own movement.
In a lengthy Truth Social rant, Trump lashed out at a slate of right-wing figures who have criticized his stance on a potential war with Iran, including Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones.
Trump accused the group of having “low IQs” and bizarrely suggested they support Iran obtaining nuclear weapons — a claim none of them have made. He also took a swipe at Marjorie Taylor Greene, referring to her with a derogatory nickname and dismissing her criticism outright.
“I know why Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones have all been fighting me for years, especially by the fact that they think it is wonderful for Iran, the Number One State Sponsor of Terror, to have a Nuclear Weapon — Because they have one thing in common, Low IQs,” Trump ranted.
“As President, I could get them on my side anytime I want to, but when they call, I don’t return their calls because I’m too busy on World and Country Affairs and, after a few times, they go “nasty,” just like Marjorie “Traitor” Brown, but I no longer care about that stuff, I only care about doing right for our Country,” he added.
The reaction was swift — and brutal.
Greene fired back almost immediately, accusing Trump of betraying his own base and abandoning a core campaign promise to avoid new foreign wars.
“Trump has gone mad,” Greene wrote, adding that she and others had stood by him politically — only to now find themselves targeted in what she described as a “rambling rant.”
Owens delivered perhaps the most cutting response of all, taking direct aim at Trump’s mental fitness in a single, devastating line:
“It may be time to put Grandpa up in a home.”
Meanwhile, Jones struck a more conflicted tone, expressing disappointment rather than outright fury. In a video response, he suggested Trump has fundamentally changed, warning that his current trajectory — particularly on Iran — could have serious global consequences.
“I’m just so concerned about this country and the world,” Jones said, adding that Trump appears to be influenced by demonic voices pushing for escalation.
The infighting marks a striking rupture within Trump’s political orbit, as some of his most prominent defenders now openly question his judgment and direction.
Carlson and Kelly, both of whom have previously criticized Trump’s aggressive foreign policy, had yet to publicly respond.
What was once a unified MAGA front is now showing clear cracks, with former allies turning on each other in increasingly personal and public ways — and raising new questions about how much longer the coalition can hold together.
