President Trump lashed out at four right-wing critics of the Iran war <\/a>Thursday, describing them as \u201cNUT JOBS\u201d and \u201closers\u201d who will say anything for attention.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI know why Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly<\/a>, 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 \u2014 Because they have one thing in common, Low IQs,\u201d Trump wrote in a lengthy Truth Social post<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re stupid people, they know it, their families know it, and everyone else knows it, too!\u201d the president raged. \u201cLook at their past, look at their record. They don\u2019t have what it takes, and they never did!\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019ve all been thrown off Television, lost their Shows, and aren\u2019t even invited on TV because nobody cares about them, they\u2019re NUT JOBS, TROUBLEMAKERS, and will say anything necessary for some \u2018free\u2019 and cheap publicity.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Trump argued the criticism he\u2019s received from the quartet stems from a desire for \u201cclicks\u201d for their \u201cThird Rate Podcasts.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201c[B]ut nobody\u2019s talking about them, and their views are the opposite of MAGA \u2014 Or I wouldn\u2019t have won the Presidential Election in a LANDSLIDE.\u201d he continued, noting that recent polling showed MAGA voters giving him a \u201c100% Approval Rating.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cMAGA agrees with me \u2026 not Hand Flailing Fools like Tucker Carlson, who couldn\u2019t even finish College, he was a broken man when he got fired from Fox, and he\u2019s never been the same \u2014 Perhaps he should see a good psychiatrist!\u201d the president fumed.\u00a0 \u201cOr Megyn Kelly, who nastily asked me the now famous, \u2018Only Rosie O\u2019Donnell,\u2019 question, or \u2018Crazy\u2019 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.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Trump argued Brigitte Macron \u201cis a far more beautiful woman than Candace, in fact, it\u2019s not even close!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Turning his ire to \u201cBankrupt Alex Jones<\/a>,\u201d Trump argued the \u201cInfowars\u201d host \u201csays 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.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThese so-called \u2018pundits\u2019 are LOSERS, and they always will be!\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump went on to accuse CNN, the New York Times and \u201call of the other Radical Left \u2018News\u2019 Organizations\u201d of \u201chailing\u201d Carlson, Kelly, Owens and Jones and \u201cgiving them \u2018positive\u2019 press for the first time in their lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re not \u2018MAGA,\u2019 they\u2019re losers,\u201d he declared, \u201cjust trying to latch on to MAGA.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump asserted he could \u201cget them on my side anytime I want to\u201d but instead chooses to not return their phone calls because he\u2019s \u201ctoo busy on World and Country Affairs.\u201d<\/p>\n

He predicted they would end up going \u201cnasty\u201d anyway, \u201cjust like\u201d ex-Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), who he referred to as \u201cMarjorie \u2018Traitor\u2019 Brown,\u201d adding, \u201cbut I no longer care about that stuff, I only care about doing right for our Country.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump finished off the nearly 500-word-long post by insisting, \u201cMAGA 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 \u2018HOTTEST\u2019 COUNTRY ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"President Trump lashed out at four right-wing critics of the Iran war Thursday, describing them as \u201cNUT JOBS\u201d…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":191616,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[76670,56250,153,14670,76671,9,11,10,87,22202,58],"class_list":{"0":"post-191615","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york","8":"tag-alex-jones","9":"tag-candace-owens","10":"tag-donald-trump","11":"tag-iran","12":"tag-megyn-kelly","13":"tag-new-york","14":"tag-new-york-headlines","15":"tag-new-york-news","16":"tag-politics","17":"tag-tucker-carlson","18":"tag-us-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/191615","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=191615"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/191615\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/191616"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=191615"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=191615"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=191615"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
