- Donald Trump criticised Republican congresswoman Lauren Boebert for endorsing Kentucky representative Thomas Massie, who has publicly disagreed with Trump on issues such as the Iran war and Jeffrey Epstein investigations.
- Trump, on Truth Social, labelled Boebert a “Carpetbagger” and suggested he might withdraw his endorsement for her re-election, despite having previously endorsed her multiple times.
- Boebert responded on X, stating she was not “mad or offended” by Trump's post and affirmed her commitment to “America First” and MAGA, while standing by Massie.
- Trump has actively campaigned against Massie in Kentucky's upcoming primary election, endorsing his opponent, Ed Gallrein.
- Despite Trump's threat to withdraw his endorsement, the filing deadline for Colorado's congressional primaries has passed, making it too late for a new Trump-backed candidate to challenge Boebert.
