WASHINGTON (VINnews) — President Donald Trump went scorched-earth on several former media allies and conservative commentators in a social media post Thursday night, unleashing a barrage of criticism.

In the message, Trump targeted figures including Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens and Alex Jones, accusing them of opposing him for years and promoting views he said run counter to his political movement.

Trump sharply criticized the group in personal terms, calling them “stupid people,” “troublemakers,” and “losers,” while arguing they are seeking relevance through podcast platforms after losing influence in traditional media.

He also tied the dispute to foreign policy, particularly Iran, which he described as the “number one state sponsor of terror,” reiterating his position that Iran must not obtain nuclear weapons.

Trump further dismissed favorable coverage of the commentators by outlets including CNN and The New York Times, suggesting the attention was politically motivated.

The remarks highlight an ongoing rift between Trump and several conservative media figures once closely associated with his political base.
