President Donald Trump launched a blistering attack on Tucker Carlson, Marjorie Taylor Greene and Thomas Massie on Friday night, escalating an increasingly public feud with prominent conservatives who have broken with his political movement.
In a lengthy Truth Social post, Trump branded the trio “LOSERS ALL” and took particular aim at Carlson, dismissing the former Fox News host as irrelevant and questioning both his intelligence and political prospects. Trump also suggested Carlson should take a cognitive test if he intends to seek public office, while arguing that any future candidacy could siphon votes away from the Republican ticket.
The remarks came after Carlson hosted Greene, Massie and former National Counterterrorism Center director Joe Kent at his home in Maine earlier this month. The gathering fueled speculation that some former Trump allies are attempting to build a new political movement — and potentially a third party — ahead of the 2028 presidential election.
Greene previously shared a photo from the gathering and declared that Trump had “betrayed us all,” saying the group remained committed to an “America First” agenda and that “the movement has begun.” Carlson later amplified the message, saying MAGA had been betrayed and calling for a new political path.
We said no more foreign wars and we meant it and supported Donald Trump because he made that promise.
But he’s betrayed us all.
Our commitment is America First for all Americans, right, left, and center.

Carlson has already publicly distanced himself from the Republican Party. In June, he said he was “out” and would no longer support the GOP, while later indicating that he wanted to help build a third party. He subsequently unveiled a 10-point political vision but stopped short of formally announcing a new party or presidential campaign.
Trump’s latest post also revived his disputes with Greene and Massie. He mocked Greene over her political break with him and described Massie as a failed politician who had made a habit of voting against Republican legislation.
The president concluded by portraying Carlson, Greene and Massie as a politically marginal alliance, arguing that their only realistic path would be to challenge the existing Republican primary system.
