TRUMP-MASSIE FEUD REACHES FEVER PITCH
The Hill ^ | 06/28/25 12:00 PM ET | by Julia Manchester

Posted on 06/28/2025 10:32:01 AM PDT by RandFan

President Trump’s feud with Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) is showing no signs of abating as the president seeks to oust the GOP congressman for his history of regularly breaking with the administration.

Massie recently opposed the administration by denouncing its strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities and refusing to support the president’s legislative agenda, leading Trump’s political operation to launch a targeted campaign against Massie.

On Friday, a Trump-aligned super PAC, led by the president’s co-campaign manager Chris LaCivita, rolled out its first ad as part of a $1 million ad buy targeting Massie. The 30-second ad — titled “What happened to Thomas Massie?” — hit the GOP congressman over his opposition to Trump-supported legislation to fund border security and cut taxes. It also ties him to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and progressive Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.).

But Massie isn’t backing down.

He hit back in a post on the social platform X, appearing to refer to measures in Trump’s legislative agenda that the Senate parliamentarian opposed, including blocking Medicaid funds to be used for gender-affirming care.

“The BBB now allows funding sex changes for minors!” Massie said, referring to what Trump calls the “big, beautiful bill.” “This ad slams me for voting against the BBB, but the Senate just stripped the ‘ban on sex changes for minors’ from the BBB. By the ads’ twisted logic, those who support the Senate’s edits now support sex changes for minors.”

There is something odd about KY (and I'm not talking about the lubricant)

Woman have always been the civilizing force with men.

Massie has never been the same after losing his wife. I’ve seen the exact same thing with several co-workers and relatives.

Like Rand, he acts like he’s President.

He represents 800,0000 people in Kentucky, that’s all he does.

What an a-hole. Trump just brought a G.E. plant to KY from China. Trump has done more for Kentuckians in six months than Massie and Paul combined in their careers.

Of course you do. He’s toast.

And deservedly so.

It figures that a liberaltarian Ignoramus such as yourself would support Massie. I support Trump 100% in getting rid of Massie.

Very interesting: If you type “WHAT HAPPENED TO THOMAS MASSY” into YouTube’s search engine, it will not take you to the ad. Instead it shows many pro-Massy webpages. But if you click “The 30 Second Ad” underlined in the Hill article it will take you to the ad ON YOUTUBE. So, the ad is on YouTube but YouTube’s search engine will not take you there. Hard to believe that YouTube would hide something on their website, but there you are. The censorship by online media continues.

I’m in the KY 4th, I’ve always voted for Rep Massie and he will always have my vote as the 4th’s Rep.
SuperPac to primary Massie is why conservatives refer to the GOP as the stupid party.
The Dems don’t waste $$$ running against Massie in the General
$$$ would be better spent on RINO Lisa Murkowski or Collins of Maine.
Remember PDJT supported him in 2024.
I’m MAGA but I’m a realist and Massie is a libertarian. Deal with it.
So far a nurse from Spenser County w 160 FakeBook followers is running against Massie, but she’s not going to primary Massie, he fits the 4th like a leather glove.
Maybe PDJT will bring in BOMBSHELL Hannity for a rally – that will garner a crowd of a 1000 Mitch GOPe clowns and 1200 Dems.
My family and my circle of friends and co-workers would never vote for Massie in Prez Primary bec of his libertarian natl security values n views
And he knows this bec I n several others have written him on his congressional email but he’ll have our vote as Rep.
All of you w the hyper-bravado – You need to stay in your Lane, you don’t have a vote in his re-election – We Do!
Super Pac is waste of $$$, Massie Win by 15% in 2026. You can make book on that!
