In a fiery post on Truth Social Monday morning, President Trump unleashed a fresh attack against Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), branding the congressman a “BUM” and calling for his removal from office.
This latest smackdown comes after Massie joined forces with radical-left Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) last week to kneecap Trump’s constitutional authority as Commander-in-Chief by pushing legislation that would require congressional approval before Trump could take further action against Iran — even in the face of mounting threats against U.S. allies and American troops.
Trump wrote:
“Congressman Thomas Massie of Kentucky is not MAGA, even though he likes to say he is. Actually, MAGA doesn’t want him, doesn’t know him, and doesn’t respect him. He is a negative force who almost always Votes “NO,” no matter how good something may be. He’s a simple minded “grandstander” who thinks it’s good politics for Iran to have the highest level Nuclear weapon, while at the same time yelling “DEATH TO AMERICA” at every chance they get. Iran has killed and maimed thousands of Americans, and even took over the American Embassy in Tehran under the Carter Administration.
We had a spectacular military success yesterday, taking the “bomb” right out of their hands (and they would use it if they could!) but, as usual, and despite all of the praise and accolades received, this “lightweight” Congressman is against what was so brilliantly achieved last night in Iran. Massie is weak, ineffective, and votes “NO” on virtually everything put before him (Rand Paul, Jr.), no matter how good something may be. He is disrespectful to our great military, and all that they stand for, not even acknowledging their brilliance and bravery in yesterday’s attack, which was a total and complete WIN. Massie should drop his fake act and start putting America First, but he doesn’t know how to get there — he doesn’t have a clue!
He’ll undoubtedly vote against the Great, Big, Beautiful Bill, even though non-passage means a 68% Tax Increase for everybody, and many things far worse than that. MAGA should drop this pathetic LOSER, Tom Massie, like the plague! The good news is that we will have a wonderful American Patriot running against him in the Republican Primary, and I’ll be out in Kentucky campaigning really hard. MAGA is not about lazy, grandstanding, nonproductive politicians, of which Thomas Massie is definitely one. Thank you to our incredible military for the AMAZING job they did last night. It was really SPECIAL!!! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.”
In response to Trump’s comments, Massie wrote on X: “[President Donald Trump] declared so much War on me today it should require an Act of Congress. #sassywithmassie”

On Monday morning, the President doubled down, writing in all caps: “GET THIS ‘BUM’ OUT OF OFFICE, ASAP!!!”
