HEBRON, Ky. -- President Donald Trump on Wednesday traveled to the home district of his longtime political target, Kentucky Republican Rep. Thomas Massie, where he spoke on the economy and the Iran war but also spent much of his speech attacking Massie as "disloyal" while endorsing his GOP primary opponent.
"We got to get rid of this loser. This guy is bad," Trump said in Hebron, Kentucky. "He's disloyal to the Republican Party. He's disloyal to the people of Kentucky. And most importantly, he is disloyal to the United States of America."
Massie was one of two House Republicans who last week bucked party leaders and voted in favor of an Iran war powers resolution aimed at reining in Trump's power to take unilateral military action.
Earlier Wednesday, in an exclusive interview with ABC News, Massie said his constituents have raised concerns about the war and its impact on their cost of living.
"The first few days they the war was popular, but then, as we saw gasoline and diesel prices go up, people started to talk about, you know, 'what are the goals?' 'How long is this going to go on?'" Massie said, who added that, the longer the war goes, "the public sentiment among Republicans will turn against it."

Do you belong to a political party in your country?
Good. Massie and Rand are traitors.
Crazy talk
In what sense is Rep. Massie a traitor?
Because he won’t go along with big spending and wars?
History will judge him kindly.
Massie's job is to uphold the Constitution, and represent the interests of his district, as best he understands it.
Congress, the Supreme Court, and the President, are co-equal branches. None have any authority to demand a "loyal" obedience from the others.
Commander-in-Chief of the military does not mean Commander-in-Chief of all Creation.
ABC sure loves Massie
In the same sense that you are.
Lying, cheating, anti-American agenda.
Just like your agenda.
That said, you aren't actually a traitor because you aren't an American (or so I am told).
You are just an anti-American.
Scum.
Actually Angelino97 nailed it
You’re the one with the warped agenda.
Calling Massie and Rand traitors because they wont go along with big spending and unpopular wars...
History won’t remember some obscure democrat who says he’s republican. There are dozens of them.
Okie Dokie, Keir.
“ It’s not Massie’s job to be “loyal” to any president.”
But he should be loyal to the Party and the people he represents! Instead he seems to be loyal to the opposing party and people he does not represent. Kentucky can do better than Massie and McConnell.
Agreed.
Sounds good, until one confronts a single inconvenient fact: "politics is a team sport".
Do you sense that the Dems and their creeping socialist agenda have generally made steady advances across our nation during your lifetime?
Have you noticed how well the Dems march "forward" in a very tight, disciplined team formation?
😂
“We got to get rid of this loser. This guy is bad,” Trump said in Hebron, Kentucky.
True.
“He’s disloyal to the Republican Party. He’s disloyal to the people of Kentucky.”
True, and Truth!
” And most importantly, he is disloyal to the United States of America.”
TRUE!!!!!
You’ve been found out, Dimitry.
“...and unpopular wars...”
It’s not an unpopular war, except among demonrats & isolationist libtards. It’s debatable if it’s even a war.
