Late Friday night, after a full day of rallying in South Carolina for Darline Graham, Donald Trump went on Truth Social and delivered what might be the most complete demolition of a trio of former allies in the history of American political social media. Tucker Carlson. Marjorie Taylor Greene. Thomas Massie. One post. Done.
“Tucker Carlson just met with Lightweight ‘Former’ Congressman, Thomas Massie, and Marjorie ‘Traitor’ Greene, LOSERS ALL!” He wasn’t warming up. That was the topic sentence.
On Tucker: “Tucker’s ‘Views’ have fallen through the floor, and will only get worse. Nobody cares about him any longer in that he has become totally irrelevant… He could barely get out of College, and maybe he didn’t, but only really dumb people can’t make it through that wonderful four year time in life!”

Tucker Carlson spent two years building an X show, flirting with launching a third party, hosting candlelit cabin dinners in Maine with anti-Iran war dissenters, and morphing into a man who says whatever wild thing occurs to him with diminishing regard for whether it’s true. His audience noticed. His influence has cratered. Trump just put a timestamp on it.
On Greene: “Marjorie Taylor Brown (Green turns to Brown under stress!), a highly neurotic young woman, went from Ultra Conservative to a Liberal ‘Fool,’ all in a matter of weeks, because I refused to return her phone calls.” He noted she was “way down in the Polls in Georgia” after he withdrew his endorsement — and then she quit.

Greene spent months chasing the Epstein Files story with CNN-friendly enthusiasm, parroting left-wing narratives about Trump’s inner circle, and positioning herself as the conscience of a movement that had moved on without her. Trump noticed that too. She didn’t care about Epstein or his victims until Trump – yes, Trump – pledged during his campaign to release the files. He did and she – like every Democrat who also didn’t care about Epstein during the Biden years – turned it into an ‘issue.’
On Massie: “Thomas Massie has turned out to be a failed politician, and a real JERK. He thought it was really wonderful to vote, ‘NO,’ on everything, no matter how good, strong, or proper the Legislation would be.”
That’s the Massie record in one sentence. Voted against the One Big Beautiful Bill. Voted against government funding mechanisms. Voted with Democrats on the Iran war powers resolution. Voted against his own party’s rules on multiple occasions. Branded himself as the principled constitutionalist who votes no. The results of that brand are: one term left, no legislation passed in his name, and a legacy of procedural obstruction that made him feel righteous while accomplishing nothing.
The closing line: “What a team this would be, THREE LOSERS, and a pocketful of change! The only chance they have is to join the Radical Left Dumocrats, and try breaking into the Primary System.”
Three people who spent the last year making themselves relevant by opposing Trump. One Truth Social post making them relevant again — as cautionary tales.
Trump is in South Carolina fighting for his agenda. Tucker, MTG, and Massie are in a cabin somewhere. The contrast writes itself.
