'He is disloyal': Trump lobs threats against GOP lawmaker en route to big speech
President Donald Trump renewed his attacks against Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) en route to a speech in his home district.
The president lashed out at the Kentucky Republican for the second time Wednesday on Truth Social ahead of a visit to Hebron, in Massie's 4th congressional district, and Reading, Ohio, about a half hour north, lumping the congressman in with fellow GOP rebels Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger and Marjorie Taylor Greene as "misfits and losers."
"The Republican Party’s Worst 'Congressman,' EVER, Thomas Massie, is attacking GREAT Navy Seal Hero, Ed Gallrein, who is running against him in the Primary, saying that Ed became an Independent for a period of time, long ago," Trump posted at 1:33 p.m. "The fact is, many people do that, but Ed still supported me, and strongly, which is far more than Massie ever did, or does. Ed came back into the Party after he saw the Strength and 'Wisdom' that I displayed. Many people have joined, and rejoined, our Party, but Massie did not, because he only votes, 'NO!'"
Trump then called for Massie to join other Republicans in backing the SAVE America Act, which critics say would potentially restrict access to voting for millions of Americans, as well as restrict some transgender rights.
"He’d like to vote, 'NO,' but on this one, there may be too much pressure, even on him, to do that," Trump posted. "Thomas Massie, sometimes referred to as Rand Paul Jr. because he only votes 'NO,' is A COMPLETE AND TOTAL DISASTER as a Congressman, and a Human Being. He is disloyal to the Republican Party, the People of Kentucky and, most importantly, he is disloyal to the United States of America!"
"He is a MISFIT, who should be voted out of Office, ASAP," the president added. "VOTE FOR ED GALLREIN, A MAN WHO HAS MY COMPLETE AND TOTAL ENDORSEMENT. HE IS A TRUE AMERICAN HERO! President DONALD J. TRUMP."
