Maga stalwarts break with Trump as he threatens
to eradicate a 'whole civilization'
(…) But some of the most forceful backlash is coming from inside
Trump’s own coalition. A number of far‑right
commentators who once formed the bedrock of his base have broken with him over
Operation Epic Fury and his threats to strike civilian and energy
infrastructure. Many accuse him of abandoning his campaign promise to keep the
US out of foreign conflicts in the weeks since the US‑Israel war on Iran began.
Former
Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson called the strategy “vile on every level” on
Monday’s episode of his online show, saying that “not even a month and a half
into the conflict … we’re going to use our military to kill the civilians of
this country”.
Marjorie
Taylor Greene – previously one of Trump’s most reliable allies on Capitol Hill
– has joined Democrats in calling for his removal under the 25th amendment.
Conspiracy theorist and right‑wing broadcaster Alex Jones also
urged Trump’s ouster
on his show on Monday.
Meanwhile
Candace Owens, once a darling of the Maga movement, reiterated her condemnation
of the bombing campaign, calling Trump “a genocidal lunatic” and urging
Congress and the military to intervene.
