MAGA Civil War Erupts as Loomer Targets Vance
The Daily Beast ^ | Jan. 23 2026 | Farrah Tomazin

Posted on 01/24/2026 1:38:05 PM PST by MinorityRepublican

A fresh MAGA civil war has erupted ahead of the midterm elections, with one of President Donald Trump’s most vocal allies lashing out at Vice President JD Vance over abortion and accusing him of being “friends with degenerates.”

The scorched-earth tirade by MAGA acolyte Laura Loomer took place shortly after Vance appeared at the annual March for Life rally in Washington, D.C., where he touted Trump as the most pro-life president in history and encouraged anti-abortion activists to “take heart in how far we’ve come.”

But Loomer questioned his presence at the event, asking her 1.8 million followers on X: “Why is the GOP pushing more abortion messaging in a midterm election year? Didn’t they learn their lesson in 2018?”

“Trump doesn’t like when the GOP focuses on abortion,” she added. “How many times does he have to say this? Trump gets it. The GOP will blow the midterms.”

Vance, however, clapped back, noting that the president himself had sent a video message that was played at the event on Friday, and had encouraged him to be there.

“It’s interesting that some ‘conservative influencers’ spend all of their time attacking the administration and sowing division,” he said. “Disgraceful actually.”

From there, things escalated even further. In a series of posts, Loomer suggested that “this isn’t about abortion. It’s about @marcorubio. We all know”—an apparent reference to the rumored rivalry between the vice president and the secretary of state, both of whom are likely contenders for the top of the GOP presidential ticket in 2028.

“We can pretend it’s about abortion though, lose the midterms & then the Democrats are going to impeach President Trump. It’s sad to see. I’ll keep fighting for Trump and calling out the REAL source of division,” she added.

The MAGA “civil war” is entirely fabricated.

There is no MAGA civil war. None.

MAGA is an idea. It’s not Laura Loomer, it’s not Tucker Carlson, it’s not anyone.

MAGA is an idea. You can’t kill an idea.

The vast majority of Americans support MAGA.

To me, pro-life is an essential issue that tells me about how the candidate/politico is on other issues.

I haven’t written off Trump, who usually delivers for pro-lifers regardless of strength of his personal conviction. I have written off Loomer, who like most RINOs think pro-lifers are to be humored and patted on the head, but not worthy of action.

I elect pro-life Republicans attempting to promote the pro-life cause. I do not support the pro-life cause in order to elect Republicans.

Someone tell Lo0ner that the March for LIFE was just 2 days ago. Ya think maybe people are actually talking about it?

Trump was a NYC social liberal who had a Damascus conversion when he needed pro-lifers (and pro-gunners) to get the GOP nod. If not for them, he wouldn’t be president.

L0oner needs shut her hole....for a change.

Laura loomer was the cause of the musk trump split early last year. Her over reaction to Tucker Carlson caused months of distraction and helped republicans lose last November. Now this stupid sh-t.

Please people get a clue.,,the woman has no life outside Trump.

The problem with the abortion issue is that so much money is at stake.

On both sides. 🫤

The vast majority of Americans support MAGA.

As long as each American gets to define what it actually means in specific situations and on specific issues, that may have some truth to it.

But we don't. An agreement over slogans and general concepts often falls apart when you get down to specific issues.

Which is why much of the MAGA movement is taking an "America First" posture. Less nebulous than MAGA.

For example, L00ner is not America first. Neither are many who've been in Trump's ear lately.

And what makes MAGA between folks, theres a lot of overlap of core ideas, but not everyone puts the same emphasis on every issue, some resonate more with people than others. Its ok we dont have to be 100% homogenous, we’re not the totalitarian socialists where you must be 100% on everything or you’re the enemy. At the same time we cant rip on people because certain issues are more important to them than us.

"Trump was a NYC social liberal"

President Trump was registered as a Democrat from 2001-2009. Guess who was President then? George W. Bush. I'm sorry that I voted for that asshole twice. That's the only time he belonged to that party. The man has been married to Catholic Melania for 20 years. Your claim about him having a Damascus conversion because he needed the support of pro-lifers doesn't ring true.

Really? It is that dramatic?

Strange none of us knew or heard about it until seeing this post.

Doesn’t take a genius.

And let’s face it. This quote “gets to define” represents the rot of postmodernism.

Postmodernism rots your brain. We don’t define reality. It’s given to us.

Please think about this for a while.

Doesn’t take a genius to see that there are no MAGA principles that anyone disagrees with. If there were, you could name one.

The only disagreements are about whose youtube channel you like.
