President Donald Trump slammed Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., calling the lawmaker ‘the worst Republican Congressman’ in a Monday night Truth Social post, while noting that he is seeking a challenger he can support against the incumbent lawmaker.<\/p>\n
‘Thomas Massie, the worst Republican Congressman, and an almost guaranteed NO VOTE each and every time, is an Embarrassment to Kentucky. He\u2019s lazy, slow moving, and totally disingenuous – A real loser! Never has anything positive to add. Looking for someone good to run against this guy, someone I can Endorse and vigorously campaign for!’ Trump declared in the post.<\/p>\n
The president’s post linked to a video by MAGA KY targeting the congressman for ouster. ‘Let’s fire Thomas Massie,’ the voiceover declares.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Fox News Digital reached out to Massie early on Tuesday morning, but did not receive a response by the time of publication.<\/p>\n
Massie, a fiscal hawk, voted against passage of the Trump-backed One Big Beautiful Bill Act.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Trump has been a vociferous critic of the congressman.<\/p>\n
In a Truth Social post last month, the president asserted that Massie ‘is not MAGA,’ and declared, ‘we will have a wonderful American Patriot running against him in the Republican Primary, and I\u2019ll be out in Kentucky campaigning really hard.’<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Billionaire business tycoon Elon Musk has indicated that he will donate to support Massie’s re-election bid.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
