President Donald Trump is taking aim at political podcasters like Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens after they criticized him amid the conflict in Iran.
“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, 79, wrote via his TruthSocial platform on Thursday, April 9. “They’re stupid people, they know it, their families know it, and everyone else knows it, too!”
He continued, “Look at their past, look at their record. They don’t have what it takes, and they never did! They’ve all been thrown off Television, lost their Shows, and aren’t even invited on TV because nobody cares about them, they’re NUT JOBS, TROUBLEMAKERS, and will say anything necessary for some ‘free’ and cheap publicity. Now they think they get some ‘clicks’ because they have Third Rate Podcasts, but nobody’s talking about them, and their views are the opposite of MAGA — Or I wouldn’t have won the Presidential Election in a LANDSLIDE.”
Trump went on to write that “MAGA agrees with me, and just gave CNN a 100 percent Approval Rating of ‘TRUMP,’ not Hand Flailing Fools like Tucker Carlson, who couldn’t even finish College, he was a broken man when he got fired from Fox, and he’s never been the same — Perhaps he should see a good psychiatrist!”
He continued, “Or Megyn Kelly, who nastily asked me the now famous, ‘Only Rosie O’Donnell,’ question, or ‘Crazy’ Candace Owens, who accuses the Highly Respected First Lady of France of being a man, when she is not, and will hopefully win lots of money in the ongoing lawsuit. Actually, to me, the First Lady of France is a far more beautiful woman than Candace, in fact, it’s not even close! Or Bankrupt Alex Jones, who says some of the dumbest things, and lost his entire fortune, as he should have, for his horrendous attack on the families of the Sandy Hook shooting victims, ridiculously claiming it was a hoax.”
Trump claimed that “these so-called ‘pundits’ are LOSERS, and they always will be.”
“Now Fake News CNN, The Failing New York Times, and all of the other Radical Left ‘News’ Organizations, are ‘hailing’ them, and giving them ‘positive’ press for the first time in their lives,” he wrote. “They’re not ‘MAGA,’ they’re losers, just trying to latch on to MAGA. 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 concluded, “MAGA is about WINNING and STRENGTH in not allowing Iran to have Nuclear Weapons. MAGA is about MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and these people have no idea how to do that, BUT I DO, because THE UNITED STATES IS NOW THE ‘HOTTEST’ COUNTRY ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD! President DONALD J. TRUMP.”
In response to the post, Owen’s rep told Us Weekly in a statement, “It may be time to put Grandpa up in a home.”
Us Weekly reached out to Kelly and Carlson’s reps for comment.
Trump made headlines on Tuesday, April 7, when he wrote in a TruthSocial post that “a
whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.” The post was in reference to his deadline for Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz for safe maritime passage. Trump later announced that he had agreed to a two-week ceasefire in exchange for Iran agreeing to open up the waterway.
One day later, Kelly reacted to the post on The Megyn Kelly Show, saying, “I don’t know about you but I am sick of this s***. I’m just sick of it. Can’t [Trump] just behave like normal human?” She added that the president should “shut up.”
Owens, for her part, reposted a screenshot of Trump’s TruthSocial post and wrote via X on Tuesday, “The 25th amendment needs to be invoked. He is a genocidal lunatic. Our Congress and military need to intervene. We are beyond madness.”
Carlson, meanwhile, criticized Trump’s social media post on Sunday, April 5, where the president threatened Iran’s civilian infrastructure.
“How dare you speak that way on Easter morning to the country?” Carlson said on his podcast, per Politico. “Who do you think you are? You’re tweeting out the f-word on Easter morning.”
