On Thursday, he fired back at Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens and Alex Jones in a post calling them all low IQ losers and accusing them of running “Third Rate Podcasts.”
“I know why Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones have all been fighting me for years,” Trump wrote. “Because they have one thing in common, Low IQs. They’re stupid people, they know it, their families know it, and everyone else knows it, too!”
The break had been building for days. Carlson delivered a 43-minute monologue calling Trump’s Iran rhetoric morally corrupt and evil, urging officials around the president to block him from using the nuclear codes.
Jones called him a “dementia risk” on air. Owens called him a “genocidal lunatic.” Kelly said the ceasefire “sounds very much like surrender on our part, which I’m in favor of.”

Trump went after each of them individually.
He told Carlson he “couldn’t even finish College” and was “a broken man” after getting fired from Fox, suggesting he “should see a good psychiatrist.” For the record, Carlson graduated from Trinity College in Connecticut in 1991. The psychiatrist comment stands on its own.
Kelly got hit for the question she asked Trump during a 2015 presidential debate about his treatment of women. He responded then with “Only Rosie O’Donnell.” That was eleven years ago. Trump has not let it go.
Owens was criticized over her claim that France’s First Lady was born male, with Trump writing that the First Lady of France is “a far more beautiful woman than Candace, in fact, it’s not even close.” A sitting president comparing women’s looks in a post about nuclear weapons is a sentence that should not exist but does.
Jones received the harshest words. Trump wrote that Jones “lost his entire fortune, as he should have, for his horrendous attack on the families of the Sandy Hook shooting victims.”
Trump has a point on that one. It is worth noting, however, that Jones was among Trump’s most devoted supporters for years right up until this week.
Trump also took a swipe at Marjorie Taylor Greene, calling her “Marjorie ‘Traitor’ Brown” after she demanded his removal via the 25th Amendment, even though her actual last name is Greene and the nickname does not quite land.
“These so-called ‘pundits’ are LOSERS, and they always will be,” Trump added.
All of this comes as Trump’s approval rating sits at 40% with 56% disapproving, and Democrats’ odds of flipping the House in 2026 have nearly doubled since the start of the year. The math is not moving in his favor.
